Church Music Today

The world of music is always changing.

Life is in a constant state of change. 

People change every day. 

However, some things do not change. 

I love that trees grow, tall, strong, beautiful. 

I love that water flows in a circle, around and around. 

I love that life is a continuous fountain of beauty and utility. 

Like trees, water, and life, music has an eternal quality that resonates with the eternal qualities within ourselves.  This is a constant; a matter of course.

The use of music to promote various ends is also a continuous, never-changing verity.  This means, however, that something as grand and glorious as MUSIC is often used for less than grand or glorious purposes.

So, let it be.  Just let it be.  Let music speak for itself.  Let people use music in whatever way seems best to them.  Music is bigger than anything anyone could do to it.  Just like God.
