Dear Victorious,
Is there a point at which contemporary worship becomes inappropriate? It seems that our churhc stretches the limits sometimes and I'm wondering where we draw the boundaries.

Dear Evelyn,
Yes, I think there is a point where any kind of worship music becomes inappropriate. We reach that point when the music itself, or the style of music becomes the focus. Worship is about God. If it becomes about anything else, we have missed the point and strayed into darkness.
Hillsongs Church put out a song years ago called "Heart of Worship." It had lyrics which said, "I'm sorry for the thing I've made it ... when it's all about You (Jesus)." This is what they were talking about. If the form of worship is so distracting that you cannot focus on God Himself, then the worship is wrong.
