HYMNS FOR THE LUKEWARM CHURCH
![]()
Here's a quote from the preface of a new hymn book called Hymns for the Lukewarm Church:
"We didn't want to turn anyone off with threatening words that no one understands any more, words like worship or prayer. People in today's society get kind of uncomfortable with too much talk about things like commitment and dedication. They'd much rather have a religion that they can turn off or on at will. Our hymnal seeks to meet that need."
Here are a few sample titles included in the
new hymnal:
