“The Decision of Dordt: ONE TRUTH,” is a composition arranged and created by Dr. Matthew McMahon. This unique musical work utilizes a diverse array of musical genres, including rap, pop, country, techno, heavy metal, and others, to teach the content of the Canons of the Synod of Dordt, later to...

I’m curious to hear how you all would define the difference between a modern hymn and contemporary worship or just modern Christian radio music. I understand hymns have much more depth, scriptural foundation, are more God-focused and less man-focused, etc., but what actually classifies a hymn...

Has anyone listened to this? Any thoughts? It's a two-part album based on Pilgrim's Progress. I have been enjoying it thoroughly though I'm surprised I haven't seen it mentioned very much. It's not on Spotify last I checked so you essentially have to buy it from Neal Morse's site...

Hello brothers and sisters! I thought I would share a worship resource that has been a blessing to me. Nathan Drake (Reawaken Hymns) just finished up a project called The Trinity Project: three albums of 20 classic hymns tracks each. For those of you that lead worship, there are some pretty...

Greetings fellow pilgrims, I was wondering, and wanted to get some well rounded reformed advice on the subject of music. Specifically on the subject of producing it, instrumentals that is. Would it be okay for a Christian to produce instrumentals as a means of income? The reason I ask this...

Paul Washer - Worship Music can be Dangerous - YouTube Brother Paul Washer on the dangers of contemporary worship. 1:50 minutes long. For those of you who were interested in his views on the RPW / EP, he expresses it at around 0:40. :) I would rather a puritan worship that looks and sounds...

I imagine that one's taste in Christian music varies considerably, but I'm looking for your top recommendations for Christian music CDs. I'd prefer something majestic, beautiful, and Scriptural (e.g. Handel's Messiah would be a great example), but I'm willing to consider what had deeply...

Before I got saved I was a heavy user of psychedelic drugs, and used to indulge in trance music. Today, being a born again Christian, I no longer use drugs of coarse; however I still enjoy a good piece of trance music. While many people use this type of music to induce euphoria (on drugs). I...

Hi all. If you are interested in God's word sung straight from the Bible, (The Psalms) with contemporary music arrangements, please check out Ministry of Psalms. It is a ministry I have with the aim to get Christians to rediscover the joy and benifit of singing the Psalms, as they appear...

Hi all. This is my first post; good to be here, (posting from Geelong, Australia). Long story short: After coming out of the Pentecostal/Charasmatic church, I joined an exclusice psalms (e.p) church, where I was told the reasons for singing unaccompanied psalms. I thought it sounded nice...

YouTube - Bach - Magnificat - 11 - Sicut locutus est Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros, Abraham et semini eius in saecula. The mezzo-soprano's voice gives me chills (it's Argentinian-Slovakian Bernarda Fink, whom I had never heard of before), and the tenor (Ian Bostridge) is simply the...
