Download or read book Music Ministry written by Calvin M. Johansson and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Download or read book Tuning the Musician s Heart written by Garen L Wolf I and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-15 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This offering from Garen L. Wolf is unique on the shelves of devotional literature. On the face of it, "Tuning the Musician's Heart" is aimed at providing daily devotional guides to those ministering in sacred melody. But it is much more. The author employs his extensive knowledge of the original meanings of ancient Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek musical terms to address the role of music in worship and its biblical roots. He provides rare insight into the spiritual motivations of the great musicians of the Bible- such as the Psalmist David and the temple musicians- along with Paul's admonitions for the use of song in the Early Church. He skillfully reduces his concepts into common English and enlarges the borders to include everyday life for Christians in general. Even readers whose extent of music making extends no further than joining in congregational singing and listening to recorded instrumentals will find much to appreciate here. This volume makes a great gift idea for local congregational music makers- and high school and college students serious, not only about their music education, but also their walk with God and serving him with their God-given talent. (This volume covers January-June.)

Download or read book The Christian Musicians Devotional written by Marie Wise and published by . This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digging deeper into ministry means drawing closer to God and living His love for people. The Christian Musicians Devotional is specifically for Christian musicians who desire extraordinary music ministries. This book addresses the attitudes, issues, and difficulties involved with music ministry. Each of the 365 daily devotions is designed to keep us focused on what really matters: to love God and live His love for people. Only by living love can we attain our goal of bringing people closer to Jesus. More importantly, only by maintaining a dynamic love for God can we sustain the extraordinary music ministry that God has planned for us. The definition of a Christian music minister does not necessarily include being signed to a national label or a photograph on the cover of a well-known magazine. Many Christian music ministers will never be famous. Most of us work another job to support our music. Being a tent-maker, like the apostle Paul, does not lessen the impact or the power of our ministry. Likewise, being paid to do full time work in our ministry, like the apostle Peter, does not eliminate the struggles of life as a musician. Regardless of whether we work full time in ministry or as tent-makers, Christian music ministers must stay spiritually strong while working long hours both on and off the road. The Christian Musicians Devotional will help us develop a deeper love for God and for people.

Download or read book The Christian Musician s Call to Ministry written by Mark a. Becker and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2015-01-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music has existed before the dawn of time. Its source flows from the essence of God Himself and was created for the purpose of creating a melodious conduit from which could flow the highest form of praise and worship through created beings towards the creator Himself. Lucifer who was created as an angelic being of praise and adoration to God, was the most decorated of all His creation, was a veritable angelic musical instrument. When God created man He imparted to him His authority to have dominion over the earth, and music was a part of that impartation. Man fell however, and gave his authority and thus the purpose and power of music back over to Satan (Formerly Lucifer), who has been perverting the purpose of music here on earth ever since. As such, down through the years many musicians, even in ministry, are entrapped by this exact same attitude of self-pride in the name of popularity, professionalism and or musicianship so that the ideals and agenda of the flesh, the world and the enemy have eventually crept into Christian music and ministry. This accounts for the wide spread division and destruction among so many Christian bands today, and why so many people are so easily enthralled by sensuous music or a fleshly expression of it. The result is that, rather than being a ministry to others, music has often become a means of self-pleasure and promotion. In other words a curse-"noise" that God refuses to hear! "Away with the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps." Amos 5:23 God is urgently calling Christian music leaders and musicians today to take back what the enemy has been allowed to continue to steal, kill and destroy through music for so long, by stepping up and stepping out in the power of His anointing through the most powerful spiritual medium created... the anointed message of the gospel through the lyrics and melody of music.

Download or read book Calling Evil Good written by Spencer Smith and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Christian music-it is the innovation of the hour in our age of church history. It has taken the Bible believing church by storm. When a fundamental church institutes CCM as it's musical style, it always moves into the new evangelical hemisphere. Where CCM comes, new evangelicalism follows, as certainly as the tail follows the dog. Reverent worship disappears, sound doctrine declines, and the holy living is despised. Why does this happen? This wonderfully written book will give you the answer. Missionary Spencer Smith confronts the issues with a loving approach that instructs the reader on public and private Biblical standards concerning music. In his research, he even met many CCM "artists" that reinforce the case being presented and many of those stories are laid out for you. Although our world may be changing and many church services have become similar to that of a circus, God has not left us without a musical blueprint to practice. Although some may attempt to muddy the waters, this book washes away all the filth, so that we might see Jesus. This excellent volume should be read, reread, and applied. Brian R. Jackson, Senior Pastor, Broadway Baptist Church
