How to Start a Contemporary Music Worship Service at Your Church

By Tim Scullion and Gail W. Scullion

Starting a contemporary music service can be a daunting task, unless you can follow the path of someone who has blazed that trail. The authors' proactive approach can save you time, money, and help you sidestep many of the problems that can hinder the progress of a new contemporary service, particularly if the church is deeply rooted in a traditional service. Authors Tim and Gail Scullion answer such questions as why should a church even start a contemporary service, what are the basic differences between a traditional and contemporary music service, how do you go about getting musicians for a contemporary service, keeping music relevant to the Biblical message, what kind of musical equipment can a church with a limited budget purchase to get their contemporary service off the ground, what kind of visual equipment is needed, how to effectively lead a music group and keep rehearsals running smoothly, how to create a musical outreach ministry, how to create harmony in the musical group and keep egos in check, how to create harmony between those who attend the traditional service and congregants who attend of the contemporary service, how to mentor to youth through music, and much more. Get your answers from those who not only started a successful Christian contemporary service at their church, but who have also held seminars and acted as consultants to other churches beginning their journey!
