Music and Morals: Dispelling the Myth That Music Is Amoral
"Kimberly Smith has the resources and has done the research that is necessary to comprehend the works of music scholars.Music and Moralstakes the elements of music and boils them down into an understandable and readable format that even a non-musician can understand."                                                                                              --Dr. Frank Garlock                                                                                              Founder and CEO                                                                                              Majesty Music"Music and Moralshits at the very heart of the CCM controversy today. While so many people are getting caught up in the discussions on personalities and sidebar issues, Kim takes aim at the core pillar of the CCM movement: the neutrality of music. While CCM proponents have given little or no evidence to support the amorality of music, they have, nonetheless, accepted this major tenet without question. If this argument falls, the entire house of cards set up by the CCM community falls, as well. Thank you, Kim, for a reasoned, well documented, and biblical look at this key issue."                                                                                             --Tim Fisher                                                                                              Founder and President                                                                                              Sacred Music Services"As a Christian counselor I have been waiting for a book that presents evidence that music and morals are definitely connected. Having been a counselor for over twenty five years, I have seen the connection between sensual "Christian" music and moral failure; I have witnessed time and time again Christians who could not find fredom from moral failure until they destroyed their sensual "Christian" music. I have also received feedback from Christians who, after walking with the Lord for a time, fell back into an immoral lifestyle after they returned to their old, sensual "Christian" music. This new book,Music and Morals, will not only be of help to pastors and counselors, but to to every Christian family that desires to raise godly children."                                                                                          --Dr. Jim Logan                                                                                           International Center for Biblical Counseling of Iowa, Inc.
