Listen "When I Am Afraid: Psalm 56"

Episode Synopsis

Psalm 56 provides a song to sing when we feel pulled between fear and faith. Though David is surrounded by enemies in hot pursuit of his life, he purposefully puts his trust in God. Here we learn not only how we might trust God in the face of fear but are also given reasons why we should. We will outline our passage with two great comforts drawn from this text that are meant to either calm your current fears or prepare your heart for the next time you might say, “When I Am Afraid.” These twin comforts are: 1. My God is With Me, and 2. My God is For Me.
