True obedience, deep roots in the Word, building up others, making war against Satan and sin, persevering, finding joy in God: All these things bring glory to God, which is each person’s chief goal and purpose.

Jun 15, 2019 · We are going to talk about the relationship between the glory of God and Christian singing in corporate worship. So we have lots of words to explain here. Who is God? What do I mean by “the glory of God”? What does it mean to “glorify God”? What is Christian singing — for that matter, what is singing? What is corporate worship?
Jan 14, 2024 · Ephesians 5:19 says to sing “to the Lord” and Colossians 3:16 says to sing “with thankfulness in your hearts to God.” Singing should be God-focused, not done out of habit or ritual.
