What If Sunday Morning Worship Wasn't the Ceiling... But the Floor?
Live a lifestyle of radical encounter with God as a student of Throne Room Academy.
You Know It In Your Gut
If you're reading this, chances are you've felt it.
That nagging sense that there's more to God and more worship than what you're experiencing.
More intimacy. More revelation of Who He Is. More encounters. More of His tangible presence.
You may have even tasted it before - maybe in a powerful worship moment or during a conference when Heaven felt close enough to touch.
But, then, you went back to "normal life," and that burning encounter started to fade into memory.
Now you're wondering: Was that just a one-time experience? Or is there a way to live in continuous access to God's presence?
The Pattern Hidden In Plain Sight
The truth is, Believers may have heard about God's Throne Room... but very few have been shown how to access it.
Yet throughout Scripture, there's a pattern that plays out time and time again. Call it a "key" if you will, and it's freely available to all of us.
Because it's not about who had the most faith, and it’s definitely not about pedigree, position, or titles.
Every person who experienced deep, life-altering encounters with God's presence had one thing in common: they knew how to position themselves to receive.
Moses turned aside at the burning bush. He lingered. That one encounter became a lifestyle of hearing from and meeting with God.
David spent years in the sheep fields worshiping an audience of One. He became "a man after God's own heart" - all because he learned to posture himself before God.
The 120 in the Upper Room were willing to wait on the Lord, postured for encounter. When the Holy Spirit filled them, it transformed them and began a revival the world had never seen.
John on the Isle of Patmos received an invitation: "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this." What he saw in Revelation 4 and 5 became a blueprint for encounter - a pathway to the foot of the Throne Room of God.
Do you see the pattern?
Encounter Isn't Random.
It's The Fruit Of A Posture Of Hunger Before God.
And here's what most Believers have never been taught: that posture can be learned.
I know because I learned it. Not from a book or a conference, but from 20 years of pressing in, falling on my face, and discovering what the men and women of Scripture already knew...
There is a way to position yourself for sustained access to God's presence.
What If You Could Learn The Posture These Men And Women Discovered?
Imagine waking up each day not hoping for a moment with God, but knowing how to step into His presence with the same confidence Moses had approaching the Tent of Meeting.
Imagine worshiping with the same abandon David had before the ark - not performing, but encountering - because you've learned to steward God's presence in the secret place.
Imagine opening the book of Revelation, and instead of confusion, you see layer after layer of revelation that draws you deeper into fascination with Jesus, the way John beheld Him on Patmos.
Imagine being part of a global community of presence-seekers - worshipers who aren't satisfied with the status quo and are learning together how to live from the Throne Room.
This isn't about hype. It's not about emotionalism or chasing experiences.
This is about presence-based discipleship, rooted in the Word, sustained by community, and activated through encounter.
And it's the heart behind why I created Throne Room Academy.
A Community for Those Hungry for the “More” of God
My name is Matt Gilman, and for the past 20 years, I've been a worship leader, songwriter, but most importantly a student of God’s Word.
I've led worship in stadiums and I've led worship in living rooms. I've been a worship pastor, and I've traveled the globe leading people to places of encounter with God. I've had the opportunity to collaborate with ministries such as The Call, The Send, Dunamis Movement, Ramp Worship, Altomonte Music, and currently serve as part of Deeper Worship under Pastor William McDowell.
But before any of that, I was just a hungry ministry school student, desperate for more of God.
I didn't want to just sing about His presence - I wanted to live in it. I didn't want to just study the Bible - I wanted it to transform me from the inside out.
Over the past two decades, God has taught me what He taught Moses, David, the 120, and John: The Throne Room isn't just a destination. It's the place where we experience a God with endless revelation and enter into a lifestyle of endless fascination.
Now, I'm not a Bible scholar with a dozen degrees.
But I have spent thousands of hours in the secret place, meditating on Scripture, leading worship in the presence of God, and learning how to steward encounters that don't fade when the music stops.
I've discovered that Revelation 4 and 5 hold the key to understanding the Throne Room - and when you learn to read its symbols, sounds, and patterns through the lens of worship, everything changes.
And now Throne Room Academy is a discipleship-driven community where I share everything I've learned over the last 20 years, helping you develop the heart posture that unlocks sustained encounter with God.
What You'll Experience Inside Throne Room Academy
Throne Room Academy isn't a Bible study or online course you'll watch once and forget. It's a living, breathing community where presence-seeking believers from around the world gather each month to encounter God together, study His Word deeply, and grow in intimacy with Jesus.
As a student, you'll receive:
"The Heart of Throne Room Academy" Foundational Teaching
Learn how to meditate on Scripture and behold Jesus through the Word—the posture and practices that unlock deeper encounters with God. This isn't speed-reading your Bible or checking off a daily reading plan. This is about learning to slow down, listen, and let the Word transform you.
Monthly Precept-Upon-Precept Teachings
We’ll go verse-by-verse, unpacking the prophetic meaning and practical applications. What do the four living creatures represent? What is the significance of the sea of glass, the seven spirits, and the Lamb who was slain? These aren't just theological curiosities—they're doorways into understanding God's heart and positioning yourself for encounter.
Going Deeper Gatherings & Live Q&As
Once a month, we gather for a live Going Deeper session where you can ask questions, share insights, and dig even deeper into that month's teaching. This isn’t just an “ask me anything” time — it's a two-way conversation designed to foster deeper connection with other students.
Monthly Encounter Nights
These aren't your typical worship services. Encounter Nights are presence-focused gatherings where we come together as a global community—from the USA, to Brazil, to Europe, and beyond—to worship and encounter God together.
Community Discussion Groups
You weren't meant to grow alone. Inside Throne Room Academy, you can connect with other presence-seekers who are on the same journey as you. This is a safe space to share what you’re learning, where you're getting stuck, encourage one another, and pray together. This is the family of believers you've been longing for—ones who won't think you're weird for wanting more of God.
This Isn't Just A "School"
It's A Training Ground For A New Way Of Life
As a student of Throne Room Academy, you're not just getting content. You're taking the first step towards living a lifestyle of encounter.
You're saying, "I want more. More of God and more of His presence. And I can't go back to what I've know before."
You'll be discipled by someone who has walked this road for two decades and is committed to helping you go deeper than you ever through possible.

Can You Afford To Wait?
Here's what I know about hunger for God: it doesn't stay neutral.
Either you're feeding it and growing deeper, or you're starving it and settling for less.
But, if you're still reading this, there's a reason. Something in you knows you were made for more than this.
So, consider this your invitation. But the question you need to ask yourself is...
Can you afford to delay going deeper in your relationship with God for another month? Another year?
Or is today the day you finally say yes to the hunger you've been carrying?

Before You Decide, Picture This...
I want you to imagine something with me.
Picture yourself six months from now, taking some time to study God’s Word and pray. You open Revelation 4 and instead of confusion or boredom, you feel alive. The symbols make sense. God’s Throne Room feels tangible. You know how to position yourself to receive understanding and insights from the Word.
Now picture yourself a year from now. A friend asks you what's different about you. They can't quite put their finger on it, but you both know you're not the same person you once were. And it’s all because you've learned how to encounter God in ways you never thought possible.
You're carrying His presence - and people around you are starting to notice.
That's not hype. That's the fruit of a life lived out of encounter with God and His throne room.
And it starts with a single decision.
Will you step through the open door?
