My wife and I are in our 60s and we like a mix of traditional hymns and modern Christian worship songs. We’d much rather worship our Lord with instruments similar to the secular music we listen to. As a kid, the Catholic organ music and funeral dirge hymns (think Faith of Our Fathers) made the concept of “worship” unintelligible to me. The first time we went to Andy’s church (over 20 years ago) was the first time I felt like I was worshipping God in a style of music that made me want to sing with joy for all He’s done for me. As an aside, we no longer go to Andy’s churches - he has reduced Scripture it seems to a very small part of his messages and it’s very disappointing.
But what I always tell fellow Believers - if you don’t LOVE the church you attend, FIND ANOTHER ONE!
“if you don’t LOVE the church you attend, FIND ANOTHER ONE!”
A Christian man ends up on a deserted island...
He is stranded there for a few years until a rescue boat finds him. When the rescuers get onto the island, they are amazed to see what the man has built to survive. The man had built three different structures out of bamboo and leaves. They asked the man what the first structure was. The man said,”That’s my house.” They then asked about the second structure. “That’s where I go to Church.” The man replied. Then they asked about the third structure. A scowl came over the mans face as he told the rescuers, “That’s where I used to go to Church.”
