Worship Week 1
John 4:23; Romans 12:1; Colossians 3:17

John Piper says - “True worship is a valuing or a treasuring of God above all things.”

Romans 12:1 - Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to

Romans 12:2

pleasing and perfect will.
Colossians 3:17

Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of
praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name. And do not forget to do good
and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
