Listen along as The Rev. Ashley Drake Mertz explores Psalm 82, a striking passage where God holds earthly powers accountable for injustice. Through this psalm, Rev. Mertz reflects on God’s call to defend the vulnerable, confront systems of oppression, and live with a deeper sense of divine responsibility. Tune in for a challenging and hope-filled message about justice, accountability, and God’s sovereignty over all nations.

Listen along as The Rev. Dr. Robyn Michalove offers insight into Psalm 95.1–7, which is a joyful invitation to worship and praise God. It calls the people to sing and shout to the Lord, who is described as the rock of salvation and the great King above all gods. The psalm celebrates God’s sovereignty over all creation—land and sea, mountains and depths. It urges the worshippers to bow down in reverence, recognizing that they are God’s people, the sheep of God's pasture, and that God is their caring shepherd. The passage emphasizes joyful reverence rooted in belonging and relationship with God.

Listen along as The Rev. Dr. Robyn Michalove offers a profound reflection on Psalm 139.1–14, which describes the truth of being wholly known by God. The psalmist acknowledges that God sees and understands every part of them—their thoughts, words, actions, and even unspoken intentions—before they take shape. This intimate knowledge extends beyond physical location; no matter where the psalmist goes, God’s presence is already there. The psalmist is in awe of the God who not only surrounds them but also formed them with care and intention in the womb. Being "fearfully and wonderfully made" is tied to the comfort and awe of being fully seen, fully understood, and fully loved.

The theme of being wholly known brings both humility and security, as the psalmist realizes they are never hidden from God’s gaze—from beginning to end.
