   Hi Everybody, I had originally posted this in the lounge, but discovered I had it in the wrong forum (that's not unusual for me :lol: ), so I brought it over here where it belongs. :D [quote] Posted: Wed Mar 23, 2005 12:32 pm Post subject: Some People Have Talent Galore -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is truly amazing!!!!!!!!

   Memorizing Hymns 1 2

   Does anyone else here find it easy to memorize some of your favourite hymns? There are probably a dozen or two I don't even need to look at the hymnal for at all - except for the order of some stanzas. Also, are there any of your favourite hymns where you have the song number memorzed, so that when they say "turn to hymn 256" (for example), you are inwardly saying, "Yes, I love It Is Well With My Soul!" There are a couple I know. As far as hymns memorized, these are the ones I can think of right off the bat: Amazing Grace (Newton) It Is Well With My Soul (Spafford) Alas, And Did My Saviour Bleed (Watts) At The Cross (Watts) All The Way Once For All (Bliss) …

   How Did You Get Involved in Music / Singing 1 2 3

   Hi Everybody, I would be pleased to hear how you-all got involved in music and singing (if you are currently and actively involved in that). This idea came to me from Termite's entries in the thread, [b]"Tone Death"[/b], wherein she described her experiences with the students she teaches. I thot it would make a discussion-worthy thread. I already gave my entry over there, so will just give a quick synopsis here. I was 18 at the time, and a very Godly Pastor's wife wanted to have a youth choir at the church our family went to. Very few of us young people knew how to sing (I was probably the worst), but she taught us to harmonize with the pitch given by the pi…

    Tone death 1 2

    Is it possible for someone to be truly tone deaf? My husband tells me I am cause he will make a pitch ask me to match it and maybe 1 out of 4 I can, but the other 3 he just laughs at me cause it is no where near what he said. The choir director at our church said it couldn't be possible because I auscultate breath sounds, will 1, I use a stethoscope to listento Breath sounds only have a few different distinctions and pitch isn't one of them. It is either clear, coarse, wheezing (musical pops and whistles) or Stridor ( sounds like rubbing a wash board). pitch isn't involved. Also when I was in the Navy my first school of choice was Electronics Technician ( I love fi…

    Does anyone know where I can download some good music? I especially like songs that were sung and recorded in local church services that churches have put on their website. My church puts music online: http://www.cmrbc.org As does Shawnee Baptist in Louisville: http://www.shawneebaptist.org I was wondering if anyone knew of others. I like to download them and then burn my own CD's to listen to. Thanks, Ramba29

    It is truly amazing to me how far the church has come in America....I heard an illustration that the church always stays a certain distance from the world; but that as the world gets worse, the church follows at the same distance...to where now, the church stands today where the world stood 40 years ago. We don't have cable tv, only regular broadcast stations, but after watching a black and white Sherlock Holmes DVD ( :D ) hubby was flipping through channels and on a PBS station John Denver was having a concert like event (he was my mom's favorite until we started going to church when I was about eight years old, then she threw all the records out.) What amazed me is …

    Just a quick question: Does anyone know anything about the Gaithers later music. I know their music used to be very good (songs such as The King is Coming, one of my favorites, and There's Something about that Name). It seems like I've read or heard somewhere that they've gone contemporary, but I don't remember how I heard that or even if I confirmed that. Anyway, if anyone knows anything about them, please reply and let me know. Thanks, - Jim

    hey! k, this kinda came up in some of the other threads but i kinda wanted to see what your opinions are on contemporary music that is performed in church without the bass, drums, etc. I've noticed several fundamental Baptist churches that I've visited using contempory music but without the rhythm. While not necessarily wrong, is this a step in the wrong direction for IFB churches? While i don't mind original contemporary worship songs that were written by IFB people, it's kinda weird listening to music that started in New Evangelical and Pentacostal churches and were originally performed by artists in those churches even if it is minus the rhythm section. Should IFB chu…

    Which Are More Biblical - Hymns Or Choruses? 1 2

    You guessed it - which are more Biblical: Hymns or Choruses? I believe overall hymns are. There is more doctrinal content to them, they were not written for ecumenical purposes, they were not designed to be endlessly repetitive as many choruses are, the majority of choruses that I have heard are rock music based, many of them are charismatic in doctrinal content - even if many others are not aware of the terminology, and the wording of many of them are based on modern Bible versions. That's some things for starters. By the way, I am not against sound choruses - but I prefer sound hymns. I do not have a problem with those choruses that are doctrinally-sound and ar…
