Riot Podcast
Overview of Psalms is the topic that will be discussed today on RIOT Podcast, a Christian Discipleship Podcast.
What if God is not asking for perfect prayers, but an honest heart?
The Book of Psalms is more than ancient poetry or worship songs, it is the language of a real relationship with God.
In this powerful episode, we explore how Psalms gives voice to every part of the human experience: joy, fear, doubt, repentance, worship, grief, and trust. Whether you feel close to God or distant from Him, Psalms reminds us that God is not looking for polished religion, He is inviting honest relationships.
In this episode, we discuss:
• Why Psalms is about relationship, not religious performance
• The multiple authors behind Psalms and the one unified message they reveal
• The intentional 5-book structure of Psalms and the spiritual journey it reflects
• How Psalms teaches us to process pain, anxiety, and suffering with honesty before God
• The prophetic Psalms that point directly to Jesus and the cross
• Why Psalm 23, Psalm 91, and Psalm 139 continue to speak deeply to people today
• How the entire Book of Psalms ultimately leads us into praise and surrender
Key Truth:
You do not need perfect words to come to God. Psalms teaches us that God meets us in honesty, weakness, questions, and surrender.
“Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.” — Psalm 150:6

Talk Freelance To Me: A Podcast for Women Freelancers
Where Self-Employed Women Writers, Freelancers, and Solopreneurs Meet to Master the 1099 Contractor Lifestyle
Are you running your freelance business with intention—or just reacting to deadlines?
It’s easy to stay in motion as a freelancer. Between client work, content marketing, invoicing, and trying to keep up with everything else, we often skip the most important work: thinking strategically about what we want from this business and how we’re actually doing.
On this episode, Ashley is joined by Melanie Padgett Powers, a longtime freelancer, managing editor, writer, and host of The Deliberate Freelancer podcast. She shares why stepping back to plan is essential, how she created the idea of a “solo business retreat,” and what creative freelancers can do to build in reflection time—even if they’re short on capacity.
