1. "God is, when we mean that God is, say, God is triune, we mean that he is three in one. He is one God in three persons. To help us understand this, we need to go all the way back to the beginning in Genesis chapter 1, at the very beginning of the word of God." [04:28](Download clip | | )

2. "Nothing is hidden from him. He knows everything. So pour your heart out before him. And then let him bring healing and correction to you. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, oh Lord, you know it all together." [34:31](Download clip | Download cropped clip | )

3. "He is creator and sustainer. Listen, I don't know if you, I hope some of you got to see the eclipse this past week. It was a profound thing to sit there and watch that just like the, I mean, see what's happening in the heavens. It's just mind blowing." [36:21]( | | )

4. "God's justice and mercy remind us of our position before Him. We deserve judgment but receive mercy through Christ's sacrifice. This should lead us to live lives of gratitude and obedience, recognizing the immense gift of grace we have been given and extending that grace to others." [23:33]( | | )

5. "He is our great treasure. Brothers and sisters, this is a glimpse, just a small glimpse of how God has revealed himself in his word. And I hope and I pray that this will continue to do so in your lives as it has in mine." [44:17]( | | )

6. "The heart cannot love what the mind does not know. This is why this is so important. You see, a proper foundational theology of God that shapes the heart produces a life of high worship of God, not just in singing, but the way we live our everyday lives." [46:17]( | | )

7. "He is all powerful. In fact, Colossians 1, 16 and 17 tells us, for by him, all things were created in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities. All things were created through him and for him." [28:44]( | | )

8. "Mercy is God not giving us what we deserve, right? And grace is God giving us what we don't deserve. Grace is God holding back his wrath and justice from us to be endured by Jesus on the cross. That's mercy. Grace is God giving us the imputed righteousness of Christ." [25:10]( | | )
