Thirty-three provocative essays on corporate worship, hymnody and psalmody, issues, and composers and composition. Explores scripture teaching on the role of music in the church.
"We live in an age of worship wars and worship controversies. Beyond all this, many evangelical churches have simply lost any vision of true Christian worship. The authority of our Scriptural foundation and the riches of the Church's heritage are neglected in favor of superficial entertainments and endless innovations. Paul S. Jones offers a much-needed corrective in Singing and Making Music: Issues in Church Music Today. A wonderfully skilled musician, Dr. Jones combines keen theological insights with fascinating historical background. This book arrives just in time, and will help Christians to rethink Christian worship—and to recover its authentic splendor." R. Albert Mohler, Jr.
