Now in a new edition! Just as the ministry of preaching requires preparation of the heart and mind of the minister, so to do choir members need to prepare their hearts and voices to be attuned to the work of the Holy Spirit through them. Leading music minister Ken Osbeck provides devotionals that adapt easily for use as preparation of heart and soul in rehearsals or just before the choir performance. Each "warm up" includes a scripture reading, an applied devotional reading, a pertinent idea for group discussion and engagement, a suggestion for group singing, a meditative prayer, and a final take-away thought.

What God Says About Music is written to address issues that have consistently been raised about the effect of music upon the mind, body and spirit. This book was born out of a desire to address these three areas from biblical and scientific research, not merely from personal opinion. You will see that God is not silent when it comes to these issues but has indeed addressed them through His word and through the Spirit of Prophecy. You will learn that music has a role to play in the new world order, and that it has profound effect upon the character, the only part of our being that will be transported to heaven. Finally, the book gives practical principles for choosing music that will be edifying, enriching, and enjoyable on this earth until we are able to gather around the throne of God and render “perfect” songs of praise to Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour, in gratitude for the gift of eternal life.
