Dr. Harold Best (author of Unceasing Worship and Music Through The Eyes Of Faith) and professor Carl “Chip†Stam (Professor of Church Music and Worship at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary) recently came to the Sojourn Music studio to sit for a series of eight short discussions with Sojourn Worship & Arts Pastor, Mike Cosper.
In this video you’ll see Best, Stam and Cosper talking about:
- the legitimacy of offering our emotions to Christ in worship
- the trouble with equating good music with a moving of the Holy Spirit
- “music†as servant to the Word
- a secret that Harold Best has learned for appreciating music that sounds foreign or distasteful to you, and more.
Watch it in the video player above or download it for free from our podcast, Sojournmusic.com Radio, available through iTunes and other podcast directories.
Over the next five Wednesday’s, we’ll publish sessions four through eight (averaging around ten minutes each) in this series on worship and music for the church, from Dr. Harold Best, Professor Chip Stam and Pastor Mike Cosper. Next week’s installment features a discussion about the nature of beauty, what the Bible means by the “beauty of holiness,” the place for arts in the church and the drive for “excellence” in music ministry.
