In this workshop, Wardell and Higgins describe leading worship in the contexts of their worship services in St. Louis and Charlottesville and explore how using the psalms can help people bring their whole lives into worship. They discuss how the psalms give voice to lament for violence in our communities, emotional trauma, and words of life for our rejoicing.
