Welcome to Contending for the Word and this week's Weekly Watch. I'm Dave Jenkins. Today we're continuing our September series, True Worship in an Age of Counterfeits. For more from Contending for the Word visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/contending-for-the-wordpage/ This episode, From Stage to Superstar: Why Worship Isn't a Performance, addresses the modern drift in many churches where worship shifts from reverence to performance. We'll define the problem, look to Scripture, consider dangers, reflect on church history, and apply biblical truth to our worship today. 📖 Key Scriptures: John 4:23–24; Colossians 3:16; Psalm 115:1 📝 Theme: Worship isn't entertainment or performance—it is the response of God's people to the greatness of God revealed in His Word and centered on Christ's finished work.
