Worship Emphasis Week 2025-2026: Scott Laird - Worship from the Wounded Places

The message focuses on internal worship and healing, teaching that every part of our inner life, including pain, must “kneel” before God. True worship isn’t about outward expression but about surrendering our thoughts, emotions, and hurts to Him. Pain, whether caused by others or our own choices, can be redeemed by God and turned into something beautiful. Instead of letting pain define or control us, we bring it under Christ’s authority, where healing begins. The speaker emphasizes that healing is often a process, not a moment, and may require ongoing support. As we allow God to search and restore our hearts, our worship becomes more genuine, and our lives can bring healing to others.
