"Music is central to the life of the church. In Church Music: For the Care of Souls, Phillip Magness helps the church to recover the primary instrument in worship: congregational voices.With voices raised, we sing praises to our God and King for his Son Jesus Christ.Singing calls for a special kind of leadership--not only on the part of musicians, but also among pastors and lay leaders.Together, leaders can help congregations find their voice and reclaim the power of music for the care of souls"--Page 4 of cover.
