In the sermon "More than a Song: Introduction," Pastor Broderick Santiago introduces a new series exploring the concept of worship, emphasizing that it entails more than just singing hymns or attending church services. Quoting Church and culture researcher George Barna, he indicates that many Christians confuse the concept of worship, failing to realize it is a lifestyle dedicated to perpetually expressing gratitude and praise to God. This is illustrated in an anecdote about a missionary in China whose health was miraculously restored after a vision from God led her to devote herself more wholly to praise. Pastor Santiago speaks on worship as an external sign of an internal encounter with God. He encourages constant expression of love, gratitude, and admiration towards God in all areas of life, not just during organized religious gatherings. Delving into the scriptural interpretation of worship, he examines various Hebrew words denoting diverse forms of worship, such as raving, boasting, and public acknowledgment, underlining that singing, our most familiar form of worship, is the least used description in the Bible. Moreover, Pastor Santiago delves into the Greek understanding of worship through the word "proskuneo," a deep reverence akin to kissing God's hand. This emphasizes the need for total devotion, respect, and adoration in acts of worship. He concludes his sermon by encouraging believers to dedicate their whole existence to God, prioritizing worship and reiterating that it is more about what you can bring to God rather than what you receive.
