    This sermon attempts to address some of the divide in our church over worship music by recognizing the focus is not on our preference but on God.

    In the last month or so I have heard some interesting comments. I’ve heard, “we don’t sing enough of the old hymns,” or “I don’t like the new music,” and I have also heard “we are singing too many hymns,” or “we sing songs too slow.” Interesting isn’t it? Whenever people are involved there are ...read more

    (Phil. 3:4-14) "If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I MORE..." Paul was a man of words. They said about him, "His letters are weighty..." We understand now, that they were the very words of God. That Paul wrote under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit of ...read more

    Sermon to handle the increasing division over style of music in worship (contemporary vs. traditional). We sing for God’s benefit and not our own. Yet God continues to inspire us with a new song and styles of worship.

I’ve heard, “we don’t sing enough of the old hymns,” or “I don’t like the new music,” and I have also heard “we are singing too many hymns,” or “we sing songs too slow.” Interesting isn’t it?
