To Be a Minstrel: A Biblically-Based Perspective of the Church Musician, Volume I is an exploration, based on the Scriptures, of what God has to say, what he intended, and what he expects for church music ministry. It boldly tackles the frustration often associated with attempting to implement a successful music ministry that is relevant and rewarding. It also redefines the idyllic perception of what a congregant sees during Sunday-morning services, which does not always reflect what happens behind the scenes. It is the author\'s intent to usher the average church into the joy of a successful church music ministry by fearlessly confronting a controversial, almost taboo, issue that is far-too-often avoided. Whether you are a pastor, a church musician or a worshiper who regularly attends church, there are incredible insights awaiting you within these pages!
