Why Music?

Why is it that music is such an issue in the church?  I can’t tell you how many churches I’ve attended and seen that people had issues with the music.  It’s not my style, it’s too fast, it’s too slow, we’re holding a hymnals, we have to look on a big screen, they play electric guitars, they play pipe organs.

My question is, WHY?  I have a particular style that is my default style, but I enjoy a lot of music.  Jazz, big band, techno, trance, a little country, etc…..  I have a wide range of musical influence.

Why is it only in the church that we have these conflicts?  I believe in the church!  But I’m so sick of people not getting along because of their own interest.  It’s about Jesus people, not us.  We sing to give Jesus glory.

I would love to hear what you think!
