What is Worship?
According to Webster’s, the word worship comes from the Old English word weorthscipe (before 12th century) or as we would say today worthship. It is technically a reverence offered a divine being or supernatural power ; also : an act of expressing such reverence.
Considering the root word (worth-ship) and the technical definition you can say that worship is the act of expessing to God his value or worth. When we go to Church we worship. We say to God that his value is of high enough importance that we can take time out of our week to spend in reverence of him. Read more

The Motions
The following is from Matthew West at matthewwest.com

I know how to act. I know how to put up a spiritual front, even if I’m not passionately seeking God. That was the inspiration behind my song, “The Motions”. I was tired of settling for a stale faith. God is a God of PASSION. His true plan for our lives is anything but boring. Every day, The God of adventure beckons his sons and daughters to quit going through the motions, and walk into a life filled with passion and wonder.
