‘Bored out of my skull’ too. And to top it off, a musician. “Dang, they forgot the fourth beat in that measure. Must be 4 in every measure!” I’d spend half the service griping to myself about the banal songs and bad musicians, the second half repenting. hahah.
Now I will only go to a NO music service — 7:30 am mass is fine by me, and I can keep my eyes on the Lord.
Problem is, you are a musician.
The money is not in Christian music. The best of the best do not gravitate to this genre. But, the expectations are low, and the product meets the expectations. The worst thing I hear is “Jesus gave me this song”. I say, “no he could not have. He is a better composer than that.”
