  • Sets guardrails against emotionalism and gives worship a solid foundation that lasts.

3. The Person and Work of Christ

  • Jesus is not only the object of our worship but the reason it's even possible.

  • Re-centers gatherings around grace, not performance—and keeps the cross in clear view.

4. The Nature of God

  • God is holy, sovereign, loving, and just—infinitely perfect and worthy of all praise.

  • Anchors worship in wonder and awe, silencing the noise of shallow expressions.

5. The Role of the Church

  • Worship is a corporate, covenantal act—more than just a personal playlist.

  • Elevates community over consumerism and roots identity in the gathered body of Christ.

6. Salvation by Grace Through Faith

  • Frees worshipers from legalism and burnout, inviting joy and rest into every set.
