About this episode
This episode discusses the contrast between pagan worship and the joy-filled worship of the living God as taught in Deuteronomy 12.
May 24, 2026 - This message on Deuteronomy 12 contrasts the fear, chaos, and self-destruction of pagan worship with the joy-filled worship of the living God, who commands His people not only to obey, but to eat, rejoice, and celebrate before Him. Moses teaches that true worship is communal, centered on God’s presence, and marked by gratitude, feasting, generosity, and delight in God’s blessings. In Christ, believers are reminded that celebration is not worldly distraction but a spiritual discipline—one that teaches us to fear the Lord, rejoice in His grace, and rest in the truth that He alone reigns.
