Cut off. That's what black history month reminds me of. This isn't an aim at anyone specifically, but generally speaking, that's how I typically feel about black culture. That's nothing new.

A Response to “Why Churches Should Ditch the Projector Screens and Bring Back Hymnals”

And that is what I intend to do. Please note that this article is not intended to attack traditional churches, or solely support contemporary churches, but to directly address the points made by this author in his article. As a worship leader, I have a deep appreciation for all aspects of church musical worship, so I appreciate and see the value in it all.

I mean they should...because I'm usually right...but that's beside the point (totally joking!).
