Hymnody takes a close look at worship songs with musical and lyrical analysis, as well as practical considerations for leading the church. Every episode focuses on a different song to equip worship leaders, worship pastors, and church musicians with insights into the theory and theology behind our favorite worship music.
In our first artist collaboration, songwriter Elenee Young joins us in the studio to look at her 2020 single, My Stoning. This story song masterfully intertwines the accounts of multiple women in the Bible who found themselves desperately in need of mercy—and had a powerful encounter with a merciful savior.
