Praise the Lord
Each of the last five Psalms (146 -150) in the Book of Psalms begins and ends with the words "Praise the Lord," which is the translation of the Hebrew word הַ֥לְלוּיָ֨הּ (hallelujah). This final section of the Book of Psalms is an excellent reminder to us not to neglect praise during our times of prayer.

Refreshing
I admire Pastor David’s drive to deliver the Christian message across all mediums. I’m so grateful that he is my pastor and I get to see him and hear him live every Sunday. Keep up gods work.
Psalm Starter, is a day starter
I don’t always start my day with David Beaty’s Psalm Starter podcast, but when I do I am more encouraged, focused and joy filled. It is helpful to have the Psalms broken down with context and application. It gives me something to meditate on the rest of the day.
