What does it really mean to worship God, and why does worship matter so much for men?

Pete and Zach sit down with Jeffrey Hoy, Director of Worship Arts at Willow Creek Church, for a conversation about worship that goes far beyond music. Jeffrey explains worship as a wholehearted response to who God is and what He has revealed, and challenges men to see themselves as worship leaders in their homes whether they realize it or not.

They discuss why worship should point people to Jesus rather than draw attention to the person on stage, why musical preferences should never determine whether God receives our worship, and how fathers communicate what they truly value through the way they participate in church. Jeffrey also shares practical wisdom about preparing your family for Sunday worship and choosing songs that are rooted in Scripture and centered on Christ.

The conversation also tackles a question many Christian men wrestle with: Why do so many men hesitate to sing? Jeffrey reminds men that singing is not something to be embarrassed about. Scripture presents worship as something strong, passionate, communal, and deeply formative for our families.

If you are a husband, father, church leader, or simply a man who wants to grow in your relationship with God, this conversation will challenge you to think differently about what happens when you walk into church each week.

Your family is watching what you worship. The question is what are you showing them?
