Phil Wickham took a Rich Mullins classic chorus and breathed new life into it with his song What An Awesome God. This chorus has stood the test of time because it is rooted in solid theology. On this episode, we’ll explore Scripture that confirms the truths we sing—that our God is awesome, that He reigns from heaven, and that He reigns with wisdom, power, and love.
Key Points
- Why theology (study of God) should always lead to doxology (praise)
- Using the BITE of making a list to uncover God’s character in Psalm 68
- Defining the words awesome and reign to deepen our understanding
- A word study on the Hebrew word ḥesed (steadfast love)

This Week's Challenge
Follow the pattern I’ve used this week. Seek out areas of Scripture that confirm that God is awesome and reigns from heaven with wisdom, power, and love. Read these verses in context, make lists, look up English definitions, and complete Hebrew and Greek word studies. Read and interact with Scripture for yourself. And then lift your eyes and your heart to God in heaven and praise Him, for all of your efforts toward theology should lead to doxology. And we serve an awesome God who is worthy of our praise.
