Worship is when we give God His breath back

People say all the time 'I don't have a good testimony' because they think their story has to involve some dramatic story of change from 'bad' to 'good'. But Jesus didn't come to save people this way. Sin doesn't make us bad it makes us dead. Jesus came to save by bringing the dead to life. And that's an amazing testimony.

But to mean it when I say that I want my life to count for His glory is to drive a stake through the heart of self - a painful and determined dying to me that must be a part of every day I live.

It's not the elements of our worship that are awesome. It's the object of our worship Who is awesome.

My life is not about the set list, it is to be set apart.

There's no doubt we were unworthy, but we were never worthless. Big difference.

Every great thing requires a great sacrifice.
