Balm in Gilead

03 – All Other Ground is Sinking Sand: Six Categories for Discerning Christian Music


Listen Later

This week on Balm in Gilead:
Heart, Soul, Mind, Strength; Spirit and Truth; A Living Sacrifice. What makes up a good worship song? What characteristics might you look for? Bryan and Grant break down 6 categories of music that make it a good one for worship. The categories are:
1. Law and Gospel
2. Scripture
3. Beauty
4. Excellence
5. Truth
6. Action

We’ll come back to these categories often as a way to view songs. Come discuss on the TechReformation Slack: https://slack.techreformation.com
