Acceptable and Unacceptable Worship | Genesis 4:1–15What truly makes our worship pleasing to God?

In this episode of The Sunday Word w/Minister Anthony Smith, we dive into Psalm 37:1–9 (KJV) and explore a powerful message titled “Fret Not — Trust the Process.” In a world where it often seems like wrongdoing prospers and injustice goes unchecked, this passage reminds believers not to allow frustration, worry, or anger to take control of their hearts.
