Worship is essential to a vibrant, thriving Christian life. In worship, much like thanksgiving, we are reminded of who our God is, and who we are. Worshipping Jesus grounds us in our identity because it reminds us whose we are and all that he has done on our behalf. Jesus is worthy of all our worship, and it’s my prayer today that you have a fresh encounter with him through this transformative avenue. Welcome to the First15 podcast. Our Scripture for today comes from Psalm 29:2, and today's worship is New Wine by Hillsong Worship.  -- Thanks for listening to today’s podcast.    As challenging as it may be, look for an opportunity to bless someone who seems to be against you today. Give them a gift, ask them a meaningful question, look for a way to add value and meet needs in their life. And watch as an act of love carries the power to change the very nature of a perspective, and even a relationship.    Make sure to rate and review the podcast today and subscribe if you haven’t already.    Have a wonderful rest of your day, and may God bless you as you seek him.
