Who is God?
Scripture-based worship connects us deeply with God in all His fullness. By intentionally engaging with the Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—through Scripture, we experience a richer, more complete relationship with God.
Each day, taking time to read just one verse that reveals an aspect of the Father's provision, the Son's redemption, or the Holy Spirit's guidance can transform our worship from routine to revelation. This practice isn't about theological complexity but about heart connection—allowing God's Word to illuminate different facets of His character and responding in authentic adoration.
As we begin this journey of finding God’s character through Scripture, prepare to encounter God in new, profound ways and ask yourself a few questions after reading to really dig in deeper:
What does this reveal about God?
What does this reveal about myself?
Who could I share this with this week?
Read one Scripture and worship Him for each aspect of His character.
