I'm so excited to launch my new podcast, HymnTalk with Melody Kneezel. I love thinking about the words to old hymns that I've sung a bazillion times and inherently know the words to, but haven't ever really thought about them before. It turns out that they are deeply rooted in Scripture and allow us to worship in a new, authentic way. And even though they are old, they directly relate to our lives today. 

In this episode, we talk about Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee, a hymn that uses an idea established by Beethoven in his 9th symphony, after he was completely deaf. How could Beethoven find ultimate joy, the subject of the hymn, after become completely deaf? How could a musician find joy without being able to hear? It totally floors me! Hope you'll take a listen!

What hymns do you want to hear about? Let me know!
