Sing! Why And How We Should Worship
ISBN: 9781462742660Sing! has grown from Keith and Kristyn Getty's passion for congregational singing; it's been formed by their traveling and playing and listening and discussing and learning and teaching all over the world.
And in writing it, they have five key ais:
- to discover why we sing and the overwhelming joy and holy privilege that comes with singing
- to consider how singing impacts our hearts and minds and all of our lives
- to cultivate a culture of family singing in our daily home life
- to equip our churches for wholeheartedly singing to the Lord and one another as an expression of unity
- to inspire us to see congregational singing as a radical witness to the world
They have also added a few "bonus tracks" at the end with some more practical suggestions for different groups who are more deeply involved with church singing.
God intends for this compelling vision of His people singing-a people joyfully joining together in song with brothers and sisters around the world and around his heavenly throne-to include you. He wants you,he wants us, to sing.
Author:
Keith and Kristyn Getty occupy a unique space in the world of music as pre-eminent modern hymn writers and global ambassadors for the genre. Perhaps best-known for the modern hymn, "In Christ Alone" (written by Keith with Stuart Townend), the Gettys have helped reinvent the traditional hymn form, creating a catalog of songs teaching Christian doctrine and crossing musical genres, and invigorate the interest of a whole new generation of people in hymns. Their Sing! campaign is part of a movement to encourage church congregations in their singing. Keith and Kristyn live between Northern Ireland and Nashville with their daughters, Eliza, Charlotte, and Grace.
