SNS 074: Fear Not the Chaos and Evil of Others, Psalm 46, Psalm Tuesday

Can I just say that, once again, the Psalms have proven themselves to be a haven for creativity and eloquent expression? Used here for the telling of us why we need not fear the chaos and evil caused by others.

The actual reason, not to fear, is stated in a fairly straightforward manner: God is our strongly proven help in our times of need. He is our refuge, so we need not fear. It is after these simple statements that the creativity explodes across the page. Creativity that truly creates a palpable impression of the chaos and evil being discussed. Now…. Well, before going any further, let’s hear this psalm first, shall we? Then we can chat about it. Also, I have an exciting announcement I’ll share at the end of this episode.

But, for now, my name is Charles, Charles Yerkes, and this is Psalm Tuesday here on the Simple Not Shallow Podcast. This is a podcast for those who want a deeper faith and not an aggressively mediocre one. Psalm Tuesday is a series in which, each Tuesday, we will listen to a Psalm being read in a manner that honors its original use as part of a worship service.     

So, grab yourself some coffee, and let’s get started.
