Is there a difference between Praise and Worship? Isn’t singing worshipping? And what’s the deal with offerings? Is there a “correct” amount to give? What about all the abuses around offerings and pastors with mega-mansions and private jets? If you attend church regularly these are questions you’ve likely had in the back of your mind. Unfortunately, they are not always adequately addressed from the pulpit. This lesson seeks to help you understand the Biblical definitions and origins of praise, worship, and offerings, so that you can develop a healthy understanding of how to incorporate these things into your daily Christian life (and be weary of those who would pervert it!).

This lesson is a part of the Basics of Christian Living series. This 10-part series is focused on how to practice daily Christian living according to God’s instructions through the Bible. To learn more about how we got the Bible and if you can trust it, we recommend you explore our Basics of Apologetics series: https://evidence4faith.org/portfolio/basics-of-apologetics-course/

My goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3
