Tolerance sets in when families gravitate to watching the immorality, vulgarity, obscenity, and violence, which at the same time promotes ungodly music into the home by way of television. They soon become so accustomed to it, it no longer offends them. Evidence of this spiritual condition is everywhere today. The path of tolerance leads to the highway of acceptance. Once a person finds CCM acceptable, he will easily embrace it in worship.
Pastors often find themselves in an uncomfortable position regarding the subject of music.
It truly is a dividing issue and because of that most pastors prefer to stay silent on the subject and just hope and pray it will go away. I thought sure he would be in disagreement with most everything I said. About two weeks later, I got a letter from that Lutheran pastor, requesting 12 of the books. He said he was having problems with some church members who wanted to bring CCM into the services of worship. What he was doing was letting the book do the work of setting his people straight on the subject.
