You were built with what Mike Plunket calls an "adoration apparatus" — you were made to worship. The only real question is what you'll worship. In this episode of Blueprint for Revival, Mike turns to Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman at the well (John 4) to answer three questions: what is worship, how do we worship, and what does worship require of us?

Mike shows that worship, at its root, is "worth-ship" — recognizing something's worth and responding to it, the way a new mother responds to her newborn without being taught how. He offers a simple diagnostic: what makes time disappear, what you worry about most, and where your money goes when things compete for it all reveal what you actually worship, whether or not it's what you'd say you worship.

The heart of the episode is Jesus' call to worship "in spirit and truth" — what Mike calls order and ardor, structure and fire held together. He closes with a question Jesus put to a woman who came to a well expecting judgment: what obstacles are we putting up, when God wants so much to give us Himself?
