In this message, Andy Lowry invites us to discover a bigger view of God—one that moves beyond the version we can easily understand or control. As we explore God's greatness and the way he chose to come near through Jesus, we're reminded that his love is deeper, his grace is greater, and his presence is more personal than we often realize. No matter where you're starting from, this message offers an invitation to trust the God who is bigger than your questions, fears, and circumstances.

Scripture to reflect on:

Nehemiah 9:5-6

Blessed be your glorious name, and may it be exalted above all blessing and praise.  You alone are the Lord.  You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them.  You give life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship you.

Psalm 104:1-2  

Praise the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, you are very great!

You are clothed with splendor and majesty, covering yourself with light as with a garment,

stretching out the heavens like a tent

Isaiah 40:25-26

To whom then will you compare me? Or who is my equal?  says the Holy One.  Lift your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these?  He who brings out the starry host one by one, and calls them each by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.

Job 38:3-5

Brace yourself mere man; I will question you and you shall answer me.  “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?  Tell me, if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions?  Surely you know!  Who stretched a measuring line across it?  

Romans 11:33-36

Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!  How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!  Who has known the mind of the Lord?  Or who has been his counselor?  Who has given to God that God should repay him?  For from him and through him and to him are all things.  To him be the glory forever! Amen.

1 Timothy 6:15-16

God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see.  To him be honor and might forever. Amen.

John 1:1-5

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.  Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.  In him was life, and that life was the light of humanity.  The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.

Colossians 1:15-17

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.  For by him all things were created:  things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible. Whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities, all things were created by him and for him.  He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.  

Revelation 4:10-11

They lay their crowns before the throne and say: You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.
