Can we separate the song from the source?
Does the source of a worship song determine whether we should sing it? In this conversation, Andrew Selley and Mike Davies offer a biblical perspective on the debate around worship music. They illustrate whether believers can sing songs written by artists or movements with questionable theology or practice, and if those songs can compromise our churches. By looking at the impact of online discernment ministries and cancel culture on the body of Christ, we are challenged to respond biblically rather than react culturally.
This session is part of the #BeEquipped series – conversations about current issues facing the church. Explore more thought-provoking messages from this series.
