0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
0:07.0 | We don't know who wrote any of the Psalms we read today, but they're all really |
0:16.9 | descriptive picturesque Psalms, so it makes me wonder if they were written by the same person. |
0:22.0 | Psalm 95 opens with praise and reminds the listener that God isn't just supreme over the earthly |
