The Bible depicts God in a way that leads to awe and worship. He is the king of the universe who is loving and merciful (Exodus 34:6–7). God is transcendent—yet He chooses to draw near to us. Worship, the natural response to God’s generosity, is central to who we are as human beings. In this episode, we discuss how to worship the Lord passionately, “in spirit and truth” (John 4:24).
In this episode, we address topics including:
- What Judaism teaches about worship
- What worship looks like in Israel
- How to balance performance and worship
- How to cultivate a heart of worship
