This episode invites listeners to rediscover the comfort found in the hymn "Be Still, My Soul." Through personal stories and deep discussions, we explore the hymn's message about trusting God in life's uncertainties and the importance of remembering to preach the gospel to ourselves everyday. 

We look at the power of personal stories in our faith journeys. We discuss musical prosody and the intertwining of the music and lyrics of this hymn that produce such an emotional response for the listener.  And we connect scripture to the hymn's messages of trust and peace pointing us back to the power of the Gospel in our everyday lives.
