This book is an exciting and prophetic look at the music of the Church. Whether or not you are directly affiliated with a church music program, you need to read this book!! Harold Best masterfully deals with topics relevant to the Contemporary Church around the world from a biblical, historical, and academic position.

This book is not to equate music with worship, for this is a big mistake that the author intentionally avoids. However, in order to move forward in our thinking and theology of formal community worship, we need to remove music from the discussion and examine it thoroughly on its own. It is at this point that we can begin to see how our worship fits together. Best's book masterfully does this on many levels.

Interesting textbook on the Music Ministry. Dr. Best is a musician and knows what it takes to stay dedicated to the ministry and what it takes to stay that way.

This is a great book, and it arrived in great condition. Lots of good information. It's one of the best books I've read in a long time. Thanks for a wonderful product!

A thorough philosophy of the art of music from a Christian perspective.

This book is deep and philosophical, definitely not light reading. But, I think the chapters on worship are good.

What we received in the mail was not the same cover as what I saw on the website. The book photograph copyright date is from 1992. I realize that I just got myself an old and used book for the price I would pay for a newer used book. I'm sure that there is a more current book (which I thought I was ordering). I only got the older edition plus the pages are yellowish. I would have gotten the new edition if I were given a choice.
