In this episode of the podcast, host Aldo Leon is joined by guest Pastor Drew Poplin from the First Reformed Presbyterian Church of Durham (RPCNA - https://www.firstrpcdurham.org/) to discuss the topic of exclusive psalm singing and its impact on our doctrine and life. They begin by exploring the story of how Pastor Poplin came to his position on psalmody and defining the position itself. The discussion then moves on to the arguments for psalmody, with the guest pastor outlining the confessional basis and the superiority, sufficiency, and scriptural forms of argument. The duo then delves into the history of psalmody in the church, from the early church to the reformation. They also explore the arrival of hymnody in the church and the regulative principle of the reformation, as well as the impact of revivalism and the Old/New Side. The episode concludes with an examination of the objections to exclusive psalm-singing and how to address them. Pastor Poplin also outlines what the church and hymns are missing in terms of obedience to God's command, biblical simplicity of worship, biblical literacy, masculinity, suffering, victory/eschatology, the law, piety, Godward focus, and love for public worship.
