houses of God
Places of worship
Houses of God are places of worship—churches, synagogues, mosques, temples, or any buildings dedicated to religious practice and the presence of the divine.
The phrase carries reverence, treating the structure as sacred ground: Remove your hat in the house of God.
Someone might speak of all the houses of God in the city when referring collectively to its religious buildings.
