Comments on: Worship Music vs. Music Worship http://joshuamartin.wordpress.com/2007/08/10/worship-music-vs-music-worship/ More than a stepping stone Wed, 16 Sep 2009 13:29:15 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Nick Franks http://joshuamartin.wordpress.com/2007/08/10/worship-music-vs-music-worship/#comment-203 Nick Franks Mon, 16 Mar 2009 16:07:29 +0000 http://joshuamartin.wordpress.com/2007/08/10/worship-music-vs-music-worship/#comment-203 I love hymns like How Great Thou Art or equally When I Survey, but I love the way they can be brought to life in a fresh way with a new arrangement or hook/riff that helps the church connect with them.
