An invitation, a time of thanksgiving and praise, a celebration of God’s gifts – these are all ways Melvin and James Amerson describe offering and its role in worship. The authors address the concerns and misunderstandings surrounding the practice of offering.
Each chapter addresses how to transform offering into a celebration, which involves all members of the congregation, including children and youth. Throughout the book the authors provide prayers, litanies, and examples of how to incorporated offering into the deepest fibers of the congregations worship experience.
