What's Praise Got to Do With It?
Elder Tavares Parker draws on the names in 1 Chronicles 4:1 to explore a life of praise. He presents five expressions: praise through breakthrough, trust in God’s covenant faithfulness, praise shaped by struggle, quiet support for others and a legacy that strengthens the next generation.
The message urges listeners to praise throughout daily life rather than waiting for circumstances to improve. Gratitude, service and perseverance become ways of turning attention toward God and offering a witness to others.
