Scripture

• Psalms 34

About this sermon

What if one of the greatest gifts you could give someone is helping them develop a taste for what is good? In this reflection on Psalm 34, John Ortberg revisits the famous invitation: "Taste and see that the Lord is good." But this time he explores a surprising idea: every one of us is a tastemaker. Through stories from Anthony Bourdain, insights from C. S. Lewis and G. K. Chesterton, and reflections on gratitude, beauty, and influence, John explores how our loves shape the people around us. This episode explores: - Psalm 34 and God's goodness - Anthony Bourdain's life-changing oyster - C.S. Lewis and The Weight of Glory - G.K. Chesterton on wonder and gratitude - How taste is formed - Becoming a tastemaker for goodness Scriptures: - Psalm 34 #Psalm34 #JohnOrtberg #TasteAndSee #SpiritualFormation #ChristianFaith #Prayer #Gratitude #CSLewis #Chesterton #Psalms 📚 Today's Resources: axis.org G.K.
