57: David Taylor on Psalms for a Pandemic - a podcast by Ashley Hales

In this first episode of Season 4 on Living Faithfully in an Upside-Down World, David Taylor and I talk about the language of the Psalms and how they can help chart the way forward for Christians living now — in a pandemic, in an election year, with polarizing tensions, racial violence, inequality and more swirling around us.

The Psalms give us edited language for our unedited emotions, and permission to say certain things to God. @wdavidotaylorThe Psalms remind us: Be a mess but do so before the face of God. @wdavidotaylor
