As Psalm 24:1 reminds us: "The earth is the Lord's, and all it contains, the world, and those who dwell in it." He rules over all creation. He governs the salvation of sinners. He alone deserves our highest praise.

Pastor Tom compels us as Christians to embrace a high view of God, specifically through the doctrine of salvation. When you truly grasp God's sovereignty in your rescue, worship becomes inevitable.

It is vital that every Christian study the being and character of God, specifically the magnificent doctrine of divine providence. When you understand God's providence, you'll never see your circumstances the same way again.

A high view of God recognizes who God is as He is revealed in Scripture and responds to that knowledge with worship. I pray this series will encourage us to know God better and to then worship Him.

From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture makes this crystal clear: God rejects worship that's all show and no substance. The entire Bible bears witness to this truth. So when we gather for worship on Sunday mornings, what we do truly matters.

The gospels record that Jesus Christ cleansed the temple at both the beginning of His ministry and at the end. But although both accounts are well-known stories of Jesus’ life, many people don’t understand the “why” behind the events and for what purpose. Today, Pastor Tom explains why Jesus acted this way.

In the first century, Jesus made something crystal clear: empty, hypocritical worship is never accepted by God. That kind of worship defined first-century Israel. But for us as Christians today, we must have the courage to examine our own worship and ask the hard question: Is what I'm offering God truly acceptable to Him?

Jesus gives two crucial object lessons that define and describe the corrupt worship that permeated Jerusalem, specifically the supposed religious leaders of the day and their abuse of the Temple grounds. But Jesus’ message is clear: God hates hypocritical worship—and all who come to Him must come in spirit and in truth.

Pastor Tom follows in the footsteps of John the Baptist, calling each of us to examine which path we’re on in this life. He urges us to turn to Jesus Christ, to trust Him fully, and to experience the life-changing power of true repentance and faith.

On today’s program, Pastor Tom will unpacks Matthew 3:11–12, urging each of us to examine our hearts, repent of our sins, and place our trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation.
