Having laid the groundwork for understanding worship in the earlier episodes, co-hosts John Shimp and Pastor Karl Dyrli come together to talk about why we sing as believers and why singing has such an essential place when we gather together as the church. They explore how worship begins with God—his character, his holiness, and his perfection—and how singing directs our thoughts toward who God is. This conversation helps listeners see congregational singing as an expression of worship built on a right view of God and grounded in his Word.

They discuss the biblical worldview that calls every believer to be a worshipper, the purpose and practice of singing within the gathered church, how singing shapes our hearts as we build our lives on the foundation of who God is, what it looks like when God’s people lift their voices together, and so much more.
