Book excerpt: Contemporary or traditional? Blended or seeker? Pop or "classical"? Chorus or hymn? Combo or organ? Questions concerning music in worship abound these days. Is there a practical way to deal with these issues? In Music and Ministry: A Biblical Counterpoint, Calvin Johansson looks to God's Word for principles foundational to music ministry. Weaving together great scriptural truths, he establishes the need for a "directional balance" between pastoral contextualization and prophetic purity. In a time of facile musical accommodation of the gospel to culture, Dr. Johansson suggests that a heightened concern for musical style and quality is in order-not for the sake of music, but for the sake of the gospel.

Book Synopsis Shout to the Lord by : Ari Y. Kelman
Download or read book Shout to the Lord written by Ari Y. Kelman and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2018-06-19 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How music makes worship and how worship makes music in Evangelical churches Music is a nearly universal feature of congregational worship in American churches. Congregational singing is so ingrained in the experience of being at church that it is often misunderstood to be synonymous with worship. For those who assume responsibility for making music for congregational use, the relationship between music and worship is both promising and perilous – promise in the power of musical style and collective singing to facilitate worship, peril in the possibility that the experience of the music might eclipse the worship it was written to facilitate. As a result, those committed to making music for worship are constantly reminded of the paradox that they are writing songs for people who wish to express themselves, as directly as possible, to God. This book shines a new light on how people who make music for worship also make worship from music. Based on interviews with more than 75 songwriters, worship leaders, and music industry executives, Shout to the Lord maps the social dimensions of sacred practice, illuminating how the producers of worship music understand the role of songs as both vehicles for, and practices of, faith and identity. This book accounts for the human qualities of religious experience and the practice of worship, and it makes a compelling case for how – sometimes – faith comes by hearing.

This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We need someone to work with the children of our church and start a children's choir." It's so quiet you could hear a pin drop! "How about you?" Who me? Teach music? To those children? I don't think so! Working with children can strike fear in some adults for many reasons! Others may feel it is beneath them and not worthy of their musical gifting! Some do not see the importance of a children's choir and might ask, "What's the big deal about children's music ministry?" In this book "Working With Children and Keeping Your Sanity!" Cynthia Gowens points out that an effective children's music ministry will accomplish several goals that can benefit the church body. Not only will it help to develop the musical gifts of children, give them an opportunity to minister and prepare them for future music making both in and outside the church, but effective children's music ministry will help teach our children about God and His love for them. It will also cause them to grow and consequently prepare them to share what they have learned with their families, their church and perhaps even their community. Cynthia Gowens is a retired elementary school teacher that has been composing music for children's ministries and elementary classrooms for many years. She has traveled across the country as a clinician for children's music workshops and a trainer for those who work in children's music ministry. Cynthia is also the founder of the Children's Music Ministry Workers Conference which is a unique training conference developed exclusively for those who work in children's music ministry. She has finally put all of her years of experience into this easy to read guidebook. Her desire is that this book will help train workers and enable them to enhance their music ministry with their children. It is often said that the children are the church of tomorrow however they will not be prepared to lead on tomorrow if we do not train them today. This is why it is imperative that we beg
Download or read book Selling Worship written by Pete Ward and published by Authentic Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evangelical church has undergone a significant change in culture and theology over the last thirty-five years. Selling Worship argues that this has been achieved through the adoption of a particular style of worship. In effect the songs, or rather the practice of singing and listening to the songs, carry the culture and practice of the church. This has come about through the contextualization of worship in the production, selling, and consumption of associated popular music. Selling Worship tells the recent history of evangelicalism through the lives, actions, and economic processes of festival organizers, record companies, magazines, and worship leaders. It presents a comprehensive account of how these changes have come about and offers a multilayered pattern of interpretation to show how what we sing has changed the church. The book concludes with a critical appreciation of worship and offers practical guidelines for the future.

Book Synopsis The Influence of Music on the Development of the Church of God (Cleveland, Tennessee) by : Benson Vaughan
Download or read book The Influence of Music on the Development of the Church of God (Cleveland, Tennessee) written by Benson Vaughan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the influence of music on the development of the Church of God (Cleveland, Tennessee). This narrative is historically driven, but relies upon an interdisciplinary approach to draw on the insights of ecclesiology, theology, liturgiology, church development, and especially music. This study utilizes a chronological and systematic approach to the relationship between music and the Church of God in the United States during the first 125 years of the denomination's history, from 1886 to 2011. For over a century, music has been an often-neglected dialogue partner at the table of academic discussion and this research argues for recognition and a proper place in Pentecostal history. Along with primary and secondary sources, the important element of "living archives" is investigated in this work; these are interviews with people who participated in historical music events in the Church of God. The book also relies upon musical examples to explore the influence of music upon the shaping of the denomination's history and theology.
