Sep 27, 2008 · God didn’t intend that music supersede the Word or that music undermine the Word. He gave us music to serve the Word. When that relationship is understood and appreciated, music becomes a powerful gift from God that complements, supports, and deepens the impact of the words we sing.

- There’s more to say about why God wants us to sing, but first I want to make a few general comments about how music relates to words. When it comes...

Feb 24, 2019 · Our God is a singing God who loves music (Zephaniah 3:17, Mark 14:26). We are made in God’s image, so we have a natural attraction to music. We can do ourselves much spiritual good by listening to God-honoring music and by worshiping Him in song. – This speaks of the great spiritual power in music.

Music is a gift from God that can lift our spirits, comfort us, join us in a common mission, serve as a place of refuge during difficult times, encourage us, express what’s in our hearts, and touch us deeply, sometimes more than words can say. I’m especially grateful for music in the church. Allowing for the fact that it’s not always sublime, I can...
But as much as I love music, I’ve realized it’s possible to confuse feelings produced by music with feelings produced by truth. Some sixteen hundred years ago, Augustine was brutally honest about that struggle in his Confessions. He acknowledged the benefits of singing and listening to others sing, and said it might even inspire feelings of devotio...
If we’re honest, though, musical sounds can easily push the word of Christ to the outer edges of our hearts. And when they do, a gift becomes an idol. How do we know that’s happening? From my experience, here are some indicators: 1. We tend to respond emotionally more to arrangements and instruments than content. 2. Singing on Sundays often feels b...
One Christmas, I surprised my wife with a large dining room table. When she saw it — I’ll never forget her response — she ran over to the table and started hugging it, caressing it, kissing it, saying over and over, “Oh, table, I love you. I love you.” Just kidding. But she did do that to me! It’s foolish to treasure music so much we lose sight of ...
Who hasn’t turned to their favorite playlist, artist, or song to find encouragement in a time of difficulty, sorrow, or loss? But music isn’t Jesus. Only he can give lasting, profound, life-transforming comfort. In 2 Thessalonians 2:16–17, Paul prays, “Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfo...
The harmonies, rhythms, melodies, arrangements, dynamics, textures, and sounds of music can inspire us and move us. They can motivate us to greater effort or calm us during turbulent times. But music itself can’t articulate the amazing news that “Because the sinless Savior died, my sinful soul is counted free.” Nor can mere melodies lead us to unde...
It’s a powerful experience to sing at the top of your lungs in the midst of a crowd. Everyone knows the lyrics, no one is distracted, and the feeling of oneness is overwhelming. But unlike music, Jesus actually makes us one. And our singing expresses that unity Jesus decisively made possible through the cross (Ephesians 2:14–15). And by the way, si...
Music can’t pay for our sins and reconcile us to God. Jesus can. Music can’t raise us from the dead. Jesus can. Music can’t defeat Satan. Jesus can. Music can’t bring us into God’s presence. Jesus can. Music can’t transform our hearts. Jesus can. Music can’t restore our losses. Jesus can. Music can’t ensure we will enjoy pleasures at God’s right ha...
So, what steps can we take to cultivate a love for Jesus that is greater than our love for music? We might more intentionally focus on the lyrics that we’re singing, rather than the accompaniment. When we’re feeling discouraged or anxious, we can dig into the words of a biblical psalm before putting on our headphones. We can try not listening to mu...
Oct 8, 2017 · Music isn’t spiritual because we’ve used certain words or notes; music becomes spiritual when the Spirit inspires it. And when we sing Scripture — the Spirit’s very words — God often uses his word to soften our souls.
