This episode explores the unity, love, and order within the Trinity, reminding us that our worship must embrace God in His fullness.

The Nature and Greatness of God
In "A Golden Chain," William Perkins leads us into a deeper understanding of God's eternal nature, self-sufficiency, and unchanging character. Unlike man, God is not bound by time, weakness, or limitation. He is the first cause of all things, the sustainer of the universe, and the only One worthy of worship. This episode invites us to marvel at the infinite greatness of God, to trust in His unchanging promises, and to worship Him as the eternal, self-existent Creator. Let the majesty of God's nature strengthen your faith and deepen your worship for Him.

Hungering for Righteousness
In "The Beatitudes," Thomas Watson unpacks two aspects of righteousness—imputed righteousness, which comes from Christ, and implanted righteousness, which transforms our hearts and lives. True blessedness comes from hungering after righteousness, a longing that is itself a sign of spiritual life. This episode challenges us to rest in Christ’s righteousness while earnestly seeking holiness. Just as a newborn hungers for milk, so should believers hunger for godliness.
