Chase, I love this vlog! I grew up in two traditions -- Baptist, and Eastern Orthodox. I love to listen to the old hymns as I walk a couple of miles every day. I have several playlists on my phone -- old hymns from the Baptist tradition, and ancient Orthodox hymns (BTW, the sentiments are not that different!) and I hear the old hymns and listen intently to the words as I walk. I remember the words from when I sang in the church choir, but I listen to them more mindfully, and PRAY them, as I walk. They connect me to my past, of course, but they also challenge me in the present, in their lyrics, to be accountable for my now. It goes beyond nostalgia to a very real present. This walking and listening habit has become the core of my daily devotions. So many times I have been walking and listening to a hymn playlist, and the perfect hymn comes up to encourage me or challenge me in the day to come. The old (and ancient) hymns are a treasure, so grounded in theology and Scripture.

The book 101 Hymns stories sounds like a great gem. Prayers for all the Pastors In Season 3 Vlog Pastors Thank You Jesus for great men of God.

Yes! I love the old hymns! I have a couple of books that tell the stories of the old hymns. My favorite is Come Thou Fount. I really hate the fact that my church only uses the new worship songs. There’s so much meat in the old hymns. Chase, your best video ever!

I grew up in a little church in the West Virginia hills and music has been a huge part of my worship. "Love Lifted Me" I claim as my testimony. And "Tell It To Jesus" is a favorite. God Bless.

Enjoyed the video! I grew up on hymns and like you said, there is so much theology. I can remember studying the Bible in college and coming across verses that were part of hymns. One of my favorite hymns is Power in the Blood. I love Shane and Shane’s Hymn albums. Really good versions of old hymns.
