In this sermon from Revelation 1:4–8, we consider a question that has stirred no small amount of discussion in recent years: Is Jesus worthy of our direct worship and praise? Some have argued that praise should be offered to the Father alone, but Scripture consistently presents a different picture. The honor, glory, and dominion ascribed to the Father belong fully to the Son as well. By all means, worship Jesus.

This sermon, Looking to Jesus, speaks to Christians who are still in the race but feeling the weight of weariness, pressure, and distraction. Written to believers tempted to give up, the book of Hebrews reminds us that endurance does not come from sheer willpower, but from where we fix our eyes. We explore what it truly means to “look to Jesus,” how Scripture shapes that focus, and why thoughtful, deliberate reflection on Christ is essential for finishing the race.

Explore the profound message of Ephesians 1:3-14, where Paul urges us to lift our gaze to the spiritual blessings God has bestowed upon us. These blessings originate with the Father, come to us through the Son, and are secured by the Holy Spirit. All of this leads Paul to worship.
