Friday FIVE: August 22 - The Common Doxology

In this week’s episode, we look at how the familiar Doxology, “Praise God, from whom all blessings flow,” was not originally a stand-alone hymn. It was the shared ending of three different texts by Bishop Thomas Ken. Morning, Evening, and even Midnight devotion all resolve in the same four lines of praise, a pattern that still teaches us how to frame our days.The Friday FIVE is a weekly five-minute podcast series from Musically Speaking that features music commentary, examples, and recommendations from Jarrod Richey.Here’s a link to a PDF of the Doxology: https://shorturl.fm/JyR4lHere’s a recording of the whole thing from Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Austin: https://redeemerpres.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Doxology-Old-Hundredth.mp3 This is a public episode.
