I have been reading the book Why I left the Comtemporary Christian Movement. by Dan Lucarini
and Can We Rock the Gospel? by John Blanchard and Dan Lucarini.
This is a wonderful book. If any of you can get ahold of a copy of either book, let me know. I own them so it doesn't matter how long it takes for you to get either. If you plan on getting either book, please sign up below. We can read a section or two a week. There are 19 sections. Enjoy reading and I look forward to discussing it with you!

Okay... Well I already don't think I'll read it after seeing the title.
For drums in church!
But... let's not get into that right now.

It's by a former Worship Leader. He knows what he's saying.

What denomination? All I know is my church believes we can have a whole rock band on stage and it's fine.

Baptist. You should give the book a chance. He has very good arguments.

Ok but I don't think my opinion will change.

Please at least read it! You're allowed to disagree. I said we'd discuss it!

Ok but I am not paying money for it. I think i'll order it from the library so it might take about a week.

I have read the book, iluvsns, and it is currently sitting about 10 feet away from me.
It is a very good book, indeed!

Well, it's been a long time since I last read it. From what I remember, the author gives a great case for not listening to most of modern-day music. As you said, he is a former rock worship leader, so that gives him a bit of credibility in my opinion. I do recommend this book to anyone, really - CCM-listeners or not.

Hmmm, I'd certainly like to read it. I'm very interested in seeing how someone would prove that I'm sinning by praising God.

If I can find it. They don't have it at my local library, and I probably won't buy it. So...we'll see if they have it at my church library.

Okay.
I hope it works out. If not... I have another one we could use. "Can we Rock the Gospel?"

Look up "Can We Rock the Gospel?" If enough people can find that, I'll be fine with it.

I am going to most likely order the book if my mom lets me today or tomorrow.
