In this episode, Pastor Casey responds to a concern that many people have: why does God need to be praised? Is this just divine narcissism, or something more? This question is addressed with some help from C.S. Lewis in his book Reflections on the Psalms, in which he shows God's desire to be praised to also be his desire for us to reach maximum enjoyment. The second question concerns Sheol, that enigmatic Hebrew word used in Psalm 16:10 and elsewhere.
