Danilo Montero is a known and loved singer, composer, writer, speaker and pastor from Costa Rica. He has among his accomplishments 20 Christian music recordings and two books. He has received nominations for various awards including the Latin Grammys and has received awards at the Arpa Awards, the Billboard Award for Latin Music and the Latin Grammys. Currently he is a pastor in Houston, Texas, from where he frequently travels speaking at conferences and giving concerts.

When he was younger, before being known internationally, Danilo worked in the accounting department of the Nazarene Seminary of the Americas, a place for which he continues to hold with much affection.

Danilo will be an associate professor for various courses in the new “Certificate in Worship” program at SENDAS. Although the program will be offered entirely online, digitally, Pastor Danilo will offer webinars as part of some of the courses.

Dr. Ruben Fernandez, president of SENDAS says, “I had the privilege of knowing pastor Montero here at SENDAS when we were speakers at the same retreat. We are honored for his endorsement and strong support for our worship program. In a Christian environment in which songs focused on the human condition abound, how soothing it is to listen to the words of Danilo reminding us that the world does not revolve around us, that the focus of our adoration is the Lord, and that we are not islands. “We are the people of God,” a holy nation (the holiness manifested in our communion as a “people”), chosen for a marvelous mission!

“From my travels throughout the Spanish-speaking world, I realize the tremendous need for deeper biblical-theological preparation for our worship leaders. We are convinced that this program will be an instrument God will use tremendously to meet that need.”
