Description

"Glory" is one of those words we use constantly in church, spoken, sung, prayed, yet rarely paused over. In this episode, we slow the pace and ask an honest question: what are we actually talking about when we say "glory"? Drawing from Scripture, lived encounters with God, and everyday human experiences of beauty, awe, and power, we explore glory as something weighty, something that humbles us, overwhelms us, and puts us in our rightful place.

We talk about why glory feels breathtaking in nature, music, worship, and creativity, why it often leaves us undone, and why God's presence can feel too heavy to stand under. From Moses asking to see God's glory, to moments of worship that drop us to our knees, this conversation reframes glory not as hype or performance, but as goodness, holiness, and divine beauty made known. Ultimately, we wrestle with what it really means to "give glory to God," not as something He lacks, but as something we recognize, honor, and return to its true source.

As Scripture says, "And the Lord said, 'I will make all my goodness pass before you and will proclaim before you my name'" (Exodus 33:19). Glory, it turns out, is inseparable from God's goodness and encountering it changes us.
