Side Notes // Psalms for the Summer // When Praise Becomes Personal

About this episode

Pastor Josh and Tim Haring discuss the personal nature of worship and the significance of praising God as reflected in Psalm 96.

In this episode of Side Notes, Psalm 96 comes alive as Pastor Josh and founding Pastor Tim Haring explore what it really means to “turn up the praise.” From singing as an act of formation to the weight of ascribing glory to God, the conversation moves between deep Biblical reflection and real-life moments that make worship personal. They also wrestle with how worship shapes what we believe about God—and what it means to live as people who carry that praise into the world.
