Episode 14: The Good, Bad, and Ugly of "Theologically Correct" Driven Worship *See Episode Description 😬


Listen Later

So before you lose your mind over the title of this episode, Josh and Tyler want to reassure their listeners: YOU SHOULD ONLY HAVE THEOLOGICALLY CORRECT SONGS IN YOUR WORSHIP SERVICES. End of discussion. Notice the quotation marks around "Theologically Correct". Do we use the phrase "that's not theologically correct" as a quick fix, hoping that congregants will not ask anymore questions about what the Bible has to say about the worship song? In this episode, Josh and Tyler dive into the good, bad, and ugly of a certain camp that uses the phrase "that's not theologically correct" to mask their real issues with some worship songs and artists: they don't like the way the song sounds/feels, or they don't like the artist who wrote it. How can we navigate away from using a song, without intentionally (or unintentionally) sullying the name of the artist? Why is it important for leaders to have scripture ready to back up their position on a song, before using the phrase "its not theologically correct"? How do we navigate "camp-ism" in our churches?  Leaders, sometimes we need to just say what we think: "I personally don't like the song." or "I'm not a fan of the artist". It's ok to have a taste in music, or a preference in artist. It is not ok to slander another believer in an attempt to cover up that you have preferences too. We hope you enjoy our spat on the subject!
