NOTES
traditional worship

Our Creator God has enlivened all of creation with

the making of many peoples in hundreds of different
cultures around the world. There is great variety in
languages, dress, music, and art. In the richness of
this wide palette of humanity, God is worshiped and
adored. The worship of God is transcultural. In other
words, there are basic acts of worship that are beyond
any culture. For example, confession is a part of every
peoples worship regardless of their nation or context.
While confession of sin may not be expressed in the
same manner, the core of humbling ourselves before
Almighty God and admitting to sin in ones life, are
universal to all peoples. Virtually every people group
sings songs of adoration and worship of God with
drums, pipes, organs, string, or brass, and most of
all, the human voice. You will note from time to time
there will be aspects in our worship services that draw
on other traditions and cultures. It is so important to
remember the heighth and depth and breadth of the
Body of Christ worldwide and that we are a very small
part here in Orlando. - Dr. Dan Sharp
