Singing to Learn

Aug 10, 2025    Andrew Archer

In Week 5 of "Why We Sing," Pastor Andrew Archer explores how worship plants God’s truth deep in our hearts. Drawing from Psalm 1, Psalm 119, and the example of Jesus at the Last Supper and on the cross, we’ll see how singing biblically sound songs helps us delight in God’s Word, meditate on it day and night, and stand firm in faith—because we sing today for tomorrow’s battle.
