Can I say that there are few things worse than a personal betrayal by a close friend? The pain can make it hard to think clearly or know how to respond. So would it surprise you that the Psalms contain an example of how to deal with this, the worship book of the Bible? How intriguing, turning betrayal into worship. This psalm is a treasure trove, yet before getting into it, let's first hear the psalm. Then we'll chat.
Also, before beginning, I am proud to say that this podcast is now sponsored by our book, Psalms 1-72, A Simple Not Shallow Presentation. This book is a collection of the Psalms, as heard on the Psalm Tuesday episodes. I will share two links for you in the description of this episode.
But, for now, my name is Charles, Charles Yerkes, and this is Psalm Tuesday here on the Simple Not Shallow Podcast. This podcast is for those who want a deeper faith and not an aggressively mediocre one. Psalm Tuesday is a series in which we will listen to a Psalm being read in a manner that honors their original use as part of a worship service each Tuesday. This episode is #83. The psalm for this episode is Psalm 55.
So, grab yourself some coffee, and let's get started.
