Heather Josselyn-Cranson (STH '00, STH '05) Publishes "The Reason Why We Sing"
What is music during the worship service supposed to do? Dr. Heather Josselyn-Cranson proposes that there are several roles for music in worship and that these roles are manifested in various worshiping traditions. In this book, she hopes to give readers a renewed respect for their own traditions, but also a new-found understanding of the different genres of music sung by Christians today, each with its own function and charm.
This book will be of interest and of use to all who plan and lead worship, but also to those who go to church and wonder why music and worship look one way at one congregation, and differently elsewhere. You can purchase the book on Amazon.
