Here is a script I’ve written for the offering portion of our worship service liturgy, specifically to go along with a sermon on guilt. Feel free to use it in your own worship services. And you can get more liturgical readings in our Liturgy & Sermons category here at My Song In The Night.
It’s so easy to give money out of a sense of guilt – that this is what we’re supposed to do in order to be good Christians.
Read the underlined portions aloud with me:
Lord, you don’t need our money,
And we can’t earn a ticket to your family.
We give this morning as an expression of gratitude
For your gift of eternal life through Christ.
Amen.
If you’re not a Christian, we’re not asking for your money. This service is our gift to you. For those who can say, “God has removed my guilt and made me his child,” the giving baskets will go around as we continue to sing.
