Music's Role in the Church

Worship of god that respects and loves our god
Darren Cowdrey leads the California Pacific Conference of the United Methodist Church. In this role, he interacts with and coordinates other pastors and leaders to make the church relevant to its community. One of the responsibilities of Darren Cowdrey is ensuring the worship sessions of the churches are creative, and one of the areas he supervises is the choice of music.

Music is an essential attribute of any church session. Its presence is useful for connecting with the spiritual. That's why music can be an excellent means for Christians to engage with various theological ideas. It's a way to remember the message of the Gospel, in the same way many people associate specific feelings with musical lyrics that they remember.

Moreover, music is a great way to strengthen group unity among the congregation, as it promotes emotional connections and passion among the congregants. It's believed that members of a group singing the same song can bond together at that moment. Music can also be a means of expression for the congregation during a church service. It is a great way to reach out to new people about Christianity's message, demonstrating its relevance and culture when the appropriate music is played. This is why many churches adopt various contemporary musical styles for their sessions.
