“In spirit” means OUR Spirit, Worshipping God, who IS Spirit. We worship “spirit to spirit,” which is the opposite of just going thru the motions. And worshipping in truth means genuine, honest worship. Watch or listen to the podcast to find out what keeps us from genuine worship.

1 Timothy 2:8 (NLT)
8 In every place of worship, I want men to pray with holy hands lifted up to God, free from anger and controversy.

John 4:23–24 (NLT)
23 But the time is coming—indeed it’s here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way.
24 For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.”

Hebrews 11:6 (NLT)
6 And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.

James 1:6–7 (NLT)
6 But when you ask him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind.
7 Such people should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.

Mark 11:25 (NLT)
25 But when you are praying, first forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your sins, too.”

Psalm 66:18 (NLT)
18 If I had not confessed the sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.

1 John 2:1–2 (NLT)
1 My dear children, I am writing this to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ, the one who is truly righteous.
2 He himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins—and not only our sins but the sins of all the world.
