How the Psalter Alters Culture — David’s Cultural Revolution

“Make the Psalms part of your prayer life. One of the best things I could do is pray the Psalms. It helps me when I'm angry at God. It helps me when I'm so broken, I don't know what to say to God. It helps me when I'm full of joy. The Psalms help us understand and how to worship God. So the singers praise God, but not just that, The doctors praise God. The laborers praise God, the teachers praise God, the carpenters praise God, businessmen, scientists, mailmen, government workers, desks, all of us can use our cultural arts to worship God, Like you accountants, how can you be creative with the books? Don't be too creative. You get what I'm saying though, How do we use where we are with our cultural skills to worship God? Now that's a question. Maybe it's teaching others how their culture relates to God. Maybe it, how it relates to God, how everything relates to God. Maybe you just need to point out, here's God's fingerprints. In this part of what we're doing. Maybe as a scientist, you can give your church a quick invocation that shows the glory of God in the human eyeball. … There's a million different ways of worshiping God with your cultural skills. That's the point of this. It's your job to discover new ways. The pastors can't figure everything out, You're the one who knows your skill. You're the one that knows where you're at. You're the one that knows how this connects to God.”
