******************************************************************************

The music ministry of a church is important for the entire congregation.
For the unsaved, it sets the mood for them to hear the gospel and receive the gift of salvation.
For the newly saved, it should be exciting enough to awaken them to hear the Word of God for instruction.
For the more mature, it sets the mood for praise and worship of the Lord.
While the right music cannot save a dead service, the wrong music could seriously injure a living one.
The music pastor is responsible to see that the proper music is played and sung during church service.
No music should be performed in the church that has not been approved by the pastor.
This aside, the music minister should have general control and liberty of the music.
The music minister should make it his goal to lead the congregation into worship while staying within the bounds that the pastor has instructed.

The choir sets the pace for the service.
The choir is on stage and up front for everyone to see.
They should not be misbehaving and inattentive during the service.
The choir should be prepared for the service,
having practiced all of the songs to be sung so that they will not have to whisper them around.
