• "Come Behold the Wondrous Mystery" - Recommended Hymn Episode #17

  Nathan, Joshua, and Rachel take a look a fantastic, contemplative, powerful, and encouraging modern hymn. "Come Behold the Wondrous Mystery" is a hymn that concisely yet deeply describes the Gospel story, namely in the person and work of Jesus. With its exploration of advent, the incarnation, the life of Jesus, the death of Jesus, the resurrection of Jesus, and the second coming of Jesus, it lends itself to being a very useful song for the church in many different service contexts. Quite frankly, it's hard to think any good reason to NOT be singing it in your local congregations."Come Behold the Wondrous Mystery" by Matt Boswell, Matt Papa, and Michael BleeckerYouTube official lyric video-----Blurb for Rachel's Instagram page "Simple Bible":"Simple Bible is an Instagram page that seeks to inspire women of all ages to read God’s Word for themselves.

• "Be Still, My Soul" - Recommended Hymn Episode #15

  The gang reunites and takes a close look at an older hymn that covers the biblical themes of lament, faith in suffering, the providence of God, and the sovereignty of God. This solemn tune was composed around 150 years after the hymn had been penned. We believe the church needs to be singing hymns like this one that provide a space for those grieving or suffering to find a renewed trust in the Lord and comfort in His faithfulness."Be Still, My Soul"Words: Kathrina von Schlegel, tr.
