What is a freewill offering and what does it have to do with gratitude? In today’s episode covering Psalm 54, Emma Dotter asks us about what our natural response to God is and whether we are moved to gratitude when we think about Him. In the Old Testament, a freewill offering was a voluntary offering to God as God moved the hearts of the people, while today, as believers, it more looks like noticing and obeying when the Holy Spirit moves us to honor God out of a heart posture of gratitude.
