The Always King
We think that worship is mainly about what we can get out if it. What matters is if we're "fed". But Amos warns us that worship ought to transform us on a daily basis. That worship is really about proclaiming that God is king every day of the week, not just Sundays.
From Series: "The Lion Roars"
Amos pictures God as a lion, roaring God's judgment from Mt. Zion. We don't like to think of God as a judge. But the biblical picture of God as judge is founded in God's love as our Father in Heaven. We can hear God's judgment as words as a firm love calling us to be whole.

How many times have you heard about one of those spectacular events in the Old Testament and thought, “It must be nice!” If only I had seen the Red Sea part, or Elijah’s showdown on Mt. Carmel. Then it’d be so easy to trust God! But apparently that’s not true. We see again and again that the big events aren’t what transform us into God’s people. Rather, we find God in the ordinary phenomena we see every day.
