Of the many Christian artists in the world, there are some that actually understand their calling: By the 2005 release of his third CD “White Flag,” based on his study and teaching of the Beatitudes, Shaun was questioning what his … Continue reading

Music – The Golden Calf – Conclusion
The more I have studied this matter of worship in music, I believe it is necessary and right to put forth a warning cry. The church today has chosen to separate itself from the Biblical meaning and principles of worship. … Continue reading

Music – The Golden Calf – Part 9
For a long time, I was not willing to acknowledge the slope of worldliness was slippery. I felt that as long as we were careful in what we allowed in to the church I pastured, that it could be fully … Continue reading

Music – The Golden Calf – Part 8
I agree that there has been venom in many circles on both sides of the music equation for too many years, and two wrongs never make a right. However, I am convinced that both sides cannot be correct. If this … Continue reading

Who do pastors think they are kidding? Young people listen to the styles that they do because it is satisfactory to the flesh. Our youth can now fit in with the status quo at school and colleges with similar (if … Continue reading

Music – The Golden Calf – Part 4
The church has been infiltrated by the world to such a degree that I wonder whether most even blush when God is NOT truly honoured and glorified. Have we actually reached such a spiritual low that our dress standards, our … Continue reading
