The Bible and Music

Contemporary Christian music is different the hymns in the sense that it is more similar to more mainstream music in style. The instruments and style of voices resemble a lot of modern rock/pop/rnb songs. Many of these songs will have drums, electric guitars and electric pianos. However, the message is Christian based and is similar to hymns in the sense that they are designed to be sang in the church.

Personally, contemporary Christian music sparks different emotions in me during worship. The slower tempo allows more time for the audience reflect and think during the songs. For example, Hillsong’s song Ocean’s is a contemporary christian music song that instantly comes to mind. Some of the characteristics of this songs are soft, melodic, and repetitive.
