Presents stories of the transforming power of indigenous worship music from around the world. This work also includes CD of indigenous worship music. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I came across this title in a missionary journal so ordered it. It's a lovelingly compiled glimpse into villages and tribes world wide to see and hear the effects of simple worship on a people. Rather than imposing western worship on people groups,nissionaries are helping people groups to take scriptures, put them into their own musical form using the melodies, instruments, and techniques of their villages to create their unique worship. The effect is humbling in the love and honor given to the Word of God in remote places. Not only are we able to hear the music, but we are able to see the people, their instruments, and their surroundings on the CD Rom. The book tells stories of each person or village. I can imagine every Bible college wanting this book as text in its missions and music programs.
