Podcast Episode #281


Louie Giglio joins us to discuss the wedding of worship and theology and how the Passion movement has made that a cornerstone of its existence for the past two decades.

Passion is an annual gathering of 18-25 year olds. The next event will take place January 2-4, 2017, in Atlanta, GA, at the Georgia Dome, with more than 60,000 college students expected to fill up the dome and raise the banner of Jesus. Also, this week is a big price break registration deadline—prices go up December 1 so college students and their leaders need to register by Wednesday, November 30 this week to get the best prices. As a bonus to our listeners, if you want to save $20 off of the current price, use the rate code SAVE$20 at checkout.

Some highlights from today’s episode include:

  • “Worship is our response to who God is and what He has done for us.”
  • “A life lived best is a life lived for what matters most.”
  • “The gospel is the engine of worship. Without the gospel, there is no worship.”
  • “The biggest competitor to worship is a shortsightedness to the gospel.”
  • “There’s a new generation coming and someone has to be there to point them to Jesus.”
  • “We didn’t set out to make Passion worship albums. We set out as a theological movement with a theological core.”
  • “The greatest thing in time, space, and eternity is the fame, the name, and the glory of Jesus Christ.”
