I've been ridiculously upset since they played "We are Family" during the Traditional worship. I go to the traditional service because I want less contemporary music going on...I mean, I have two small children that I want enfluenced by the classic hymns of my faith...I LOVE the Baptist Hymnal!

We have the contemporary service...I'm thrilled my church offers it for those who feel comfortable worshiping God that way! Why can't they just let those of us who want the traditional service HAVE it? It's almost like they are thumbing their nose at us...shoving it down our throats!

There are such good folks in our church and they do magnificent work! I mean, that's something to have a church as huge as ours and pay cash for our buildings!

I'm just feeling really down about the fact that the days of that very traditional and comfortable way of worshiping is gone. My heart just breaks over it.

Whoduh thunk it...I'd be old-fashioned at age 40.

we're right there with yuh...

our traditional service does a good job... we sing at least four hymns, and maybe one praise song thats goin' on durin' "stand up and shake hands"...

we're glad we have a choice... and we choose traditional... course, the interim choir director owns five funeral homes... any connection there?...

That still amazes me everytime you mention that. Our church can do some radical stuff. But I believe that would be too much for us even.
