In this episode of Theology Is Fun, we dive into a question that sparks a lot of conversation: why does so much modern worship music feel soft compared to the worship we see in Scripture?

From “Warmie Jesus” theology to the powerful Song of Moses in Exodus 15, we explore how the Bible presents God not only as loving, gracious, and merciful—but also as a divine warrior who fights for His people, judges evil, and conquers His enemies.

Why don’t churches sing more about God’s justice, wrath, and holiness? Why do older hymns often feel weightier than many modern worship songs? And what does Revelation 15 teach us about the worship we’ll one day sing before Christ the Lamb?

This conversation moves from Exodus to Revelation, showing how salvation always comes through judgment and how Jesus wins not by worldly power—but through the cross.

• Exodus 15 and the Song of Moses
