Worship Space

Worship space refers to the physical and spiritual environments where believers gather to worship God. It encompasses both the sacred places designated for worship and the attitudes and practices that define worship.

Throughout biblical history, worship spaces have evolved from the Tabernacle in the wilderness to the Temple in Jerusalem, and later to house churches in the New Testament, reflecting the changing nature of God's dwelling among His people.
