Confessions Of A Former Worship Leader Why I Left The Contemporary Chirstian Movement (2002)

For many churches today, music has become one of the most important factors in both their mode of worship and their attempts to reach unbelievers with the gospel. Writing from his own personal experience as a former worship leader, Dan Lucanrini questions the use of contemporary music in the worship of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and shows why he believers many churches have been deceived into using ever increasing worldly means to 'reach the lost'. He has seen at first hand how an emphasis on music, and the ultimate move towards rock music in particular, has caused divisions in the church and turned the emphasis in worship away from the Lord and towards ourselves. This warm and heartfelt account is intended to highlight these dangers and to help churches wishing to reverse this trend return God to His rightful place as the center of our worship.
