Worship! This can be an act as well as an attitude. The discovery of
biblical perspectives on worship can be a worthwhile process and a
fulfilling attempt to understand the true biblical meaning of worship
for belief and practice in the midst of the many popular beliefs that
are contrary to the Bible. This course will lead you to practice
worship as a lifestyle that can be reflected in all you do - business,
work, homemaking, family life, and ministry. Students will learn to
offer to God a worship that is their whole life response, and this will
result from exploring what God expects from us through worship.
If you are longing to engage in biblical expressions of your love and
worship, both individually and corporately, this course is for you.
