Summary
Did you know God likes certain aromas and smells? It’s not the literal smell that finds favor with God, but the meaning behind the smell. For example, the smell of incense represents prayer going up to heaven, which God loves.
Jeff breaks down the four favorite aromas of God in today’s episode: prayer, repentance, kerygma, and loving sacrifice. He also reads out some feedback and answers questions from listeners.

Snippet from the Show
“God commanded the priests of Israel to continually burn aromatic incense ... but it wasn’t simply the fragrance itself that pleased God, but what it represented: the constant prayers of his people.”
