That is the kind of logic people use to say people should not practice singing or playing instruments because if you are good it is just a "show". Arghhh!!!
There are many ways to worship and lift up Jesus. Dance...er....signing is one of them. Why deny there can be power and beauty in things done with unity and syncrhonization? It is just denying reality. This is the same trap that keeps many Pentecostals from enjoying the blessing and power from reciting a common creed or a printed prayer for a group to speak together. They are so worried about being Roman Catholic or caught up in "tradition" that they miss blessings.

I knew that was going to come across wrong. LOL
Monkeyman, No, there's nothing wrong with dance-- if one is dancing as unto the Lord. Have you not ever seen people who put on a dance for "show"?
You can tell the difference when something is done as a form of worship-- or when it's done for show. At least I can. I've been very blessed by some signing groups (or around here, they are called drama teams) The difference is made by if the team has been to the prayer room before getting up there. Some are annointed worship. Others are just show.
Now I'm going to back out of the thread before I start a war for stating my thoughts. I need to be cooking supper anyway.
