What is worship? Whom or what do we worship? WHY do we worship? HOW do we worship?
Before we worship, we need a reason. Imagine you're drowning, and you lose consciousness and sink into the cold murky water. You awaken days later warm, dry, and comfortable, listening to the steady beeping of a heart monitor that is telling everyone around that you're still alive.
Then a friend introduces you to the person who dove into those icy waters, pulled you from the depths, and breathed life back into your lungs.
What would you feel toward that person who risked their life to save yours?
Take those feelings and multiple them and multiple them again, because Jesus has done so much more for you, then multiple that by every life ever lived. He is the focus of all our appreciation, our surrender, our hope, and our love.
Pour those feelings on the one who poured out his life for you. That is worship.
Huge thanks to Mike Bridgewater our engineer, JD Miller our musical wizard, and Mt Gilead Church our home to record.
Thank YOU for listening. We pray our efforts help you focus on Jesus the author, editor, and publisher of everything worth believing in.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
