About this listen
Theological and Devotional Reading of the Psalms through a New Testament Lens
The book of Psalms expresses our human experiences through its beautiful prose. But this Old Testament book is more than just relatable poetry—it reveals a rich theology of God, the nature and work of Jesus, and Christ's voice hidden in Scripture. The Psalms are the songs of the Son. But how can these songs point to Jesus if they were transcribed centuries before his life and death on the cross?
Songs of the Son explores nine psalms cited in Hebrews. Each chapter focuses on a single psalm—exploring its role in the argument of the Hebrews, uncovering the psalm's central themes, and then reexamining the psalm through the lens of Hebrews' interpretation. Ultimately, listeners will gain a better understanding of the Psalter and discover how all Scripture, including the Old Testament, reveals the preincarnate glory of Christ.

This narrator has a tonal flow with every sentence that doesn’t really correlate with the emphasis of those sentences.
At first you don’t notice it … but when you do, it becomes difficult to concentrate on the topic because the intonation and emphases have no connection to the flow of thought by the author.
It comes across as being read by someone who wasn’t really thinking or caring about the topic while they read.
A quick check of the extremely prolific and numerous recordings by this narrator certainly fits the sense of “mass-production narration voice” sensibility.
This makes it difficult to listen to the subject because the the variation of tone becomes so disconnected that it’s distracting.
it doesn’t quite sound like AI… but it’s heading in that direction.
The book is short… so you might make it through unaffected.
I currently listen to between 6 and 10 hours of books most days… so I struggled with the disconnected narration.
The narration doesn’t match the flow…
