Psalm 16:1-8
Thanksgiving and "thanks-living" have to do with recognizing God's heart for people. His unfailing Word assures us that even when the world around us doesn't look hopeful or promising, in Christ Jesus we have a securing power, a planned process, a guaranteed outcome, a sustaining Savior, and a certified hope. This is part one of a two-part series, "Five Reasons for Thanksgiving and Thanks-Living." available as an album.

2 Chronicles 13:1-18
How do you worship God? What can people possibly offer the Creator of the universe? Really, there's nothing you can give Him, except yourself. All you have to offer is your heart, humbled before an all powerful Deity who's chosen to love you and your body, taken as a living sacrifice. The only way to measure up, is to give it all up. What does that mean practically? From the album "Becoming a Person Who Lives in God's Presence."

Exodus 25:1-9, 21-22; 40:32-35
Modern Christianity often suffers from the same problems that plagued the Pharisees. We get caught up in worship and forget why it is we're supposed to be doing it. It's important to remember who we are worshiping and why. The only reason for worship is to glorify the Lord. If we miss this, we've missed the entire point, and worship is fruitless. From the album "Becoming a Person Who Lives in God's Presence."

John 4:1-26
Worship isn't a human invention. We don't find God and decide He is worthy of our praise. He is more than worthy of anything we can offer to Him. God calls us to Himself. He offers us the opportunity to glorify His majestic name. It's our unique privilege. When God seeks you out, how will you respond? See how worship is the first step to living in the presence of God. From the album "Becoming a Person Who Lives in God's Presence."
