Episode notes
Confession Frames Dependence On God's Grace
- Andrew Russell leads a corporate confession that admits sin and dependence on God's grace.
- It frames worship as restoration and reliance on God, not self-justification.
Canticle Choice Explained
- Andrew Russell notes that because the Venite is assigned, the Jubilate will serve as the first canticle this morning.
- This pairs the Venite's call to worship with a joyful canticle of praise.
Worship Includes Listening And Obedience
- Psalm 95, read by Andrew Russell, pairs joyful worship with a warning: "harden not your hearts."
- The reading ties praise to listening and obedience rather than mere ritual.
