    Tremper Longman: Cry of the Soul Synopsis: Dr. Tremper Longman III joins us today to talk about his book The Cry of the Soul: How Our Emotions Reveal Our Deepest Questions About God.

Gundry Professor of Biblical Studies for nineteen years before his retirement in 2017.

Prior to joining Westmont in 1998, Longman taught for eighteen years at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia. He has also served as visiting professor at The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology, an adjunct professor at Fuller Theological Seminary, and a guest lecturer at Regent College and the Canadian Theological Seminary.

    Why Sing Psalms?

    Psalter Project is a resource intended to encourage and enable psalm singing. We see music as an irreplaceable means to “let the word of Christ dwell in you richly” (Col 3:16). Our goal is to write, publish, and promote fresh arrangements for these eternally relevant lyrics. Translating ancient Hebrew poetry into contemporary English lyrics is difficult, to say the least. Is it really worth it? Emily Bateman, co-founder and director of Psalter Project, gives a brief overview of seven reasons to choose to sing the psalms.
