About this episode
When it comes to God and praising him, we should praise him for who he is before we praise him for what he’s done. But sometimes, hard situations make it difficult for us to do just that. That’s why it’s called a sacrifice of praise—because it involves us doing away with our pride and preference! When we allow our
praise to go up to heaven—in spite of how we feel—whether or not our situation changes, our perspective will! A Sunday message from Favor Church last May 3, 2020.

- 57 Mile Conversation - James AitonJesus dying on the cross for our sins was never an accident. He felt every whip, every punch, every nail, and every thorn.
