It's All About HYMN: Essays on Reclaiming Sacred and Traditional Music for Worship

(From the Afterword by Dr. John Hamm... ) There have been a number of books written addressing the issue of worship in our churches, most of them attempting to establish a defense of a style, choice of music, format, liturgy, etc. What one finds only rarely is a discussion of how these choices affect the character, meaning, and perception of the gospel and the nature of God. So it is refreshing to find a book in which the author has succeeded in making a non-confrontational appeal to reasoned consideration of the matter of worship and how we ought to choose the music we use for worship if we are to be consistent with the biblical directives we find in Holy Scripture. But the book is more than a treatise on worship music; it raises the consciousness of the reader to the importance of the architecture and art in the worship space, along with such questions as where the choir and pulpit are located, whether the design causes one to think vertically or horizontally, etc. The medium may not be the (complete) message but it affects our perceptions of the faith that is being expressed in the sanctuary (or worship space) in ways of which we are often unaware.

With so many contemporary evangelical voices calling for "redefining", "rethinking", "remaking" and "repackaging" elements of Christian worship, now comes a new voice for reclaiming its sacred and traditional precepts for worshipping God through sung prayer. Praised by some of the world's leading authorities in the church music field, It's All About HYMN: Essays on Reclaiming Sacred and Traditional Music for Worship opens up new doors to dialogue, sheds light on factors that influence the Western Christian worship model, and challenges all Christians to reassess how they approach the act of worship.

Classical guitarist, church musician, and author Donn LeVie, Jr. invites congregations, church musicians, and music leaders to honestly assess how well their music uplifts the gospel. Here, they will discover there is no room for personal preference where spiritual discernment, established church music criteria, and scriptural guidance must give wing to our voices in praise and adoration of an Almighty God.
