Trying to find heartfelt soul filled, anointed music is rather tough in our entertainment-driven society... many would far rather be entertained by a beat, a tune and a show, than to actually experience heart felt worship that requires a sacrifice of praise that cries up to the Lord from the heart.

So any music you can clap to or tap your toe is bad?

YES!!!
Notice, Jesus was magnified.
The words were clear, because the music wasn't so loud that it overwhelmed the singers. Or maybe I should say, didn't compete with the singers to see who could be the loudest.

Why call it jungle music then? That label has a very racial overtone.

Re: Why men hate church
Why is rock music singled out? Remember God likes it LOUD. He enjoys that. I rarely listen to Christian rock its truly hard to find any more that puts the good words with the right sound. Nonetheless to me "rock" is not NECESSARILY less holy than other styles of music.
Perhaps you can produce a Youtube of what would be considered true worship?

I rate this one very good for personal edification.

Re: Why men hate church
At least I could hear the words.
Maybe, it's a personal thing, but the song did nothing for me. I think it was the Tempo and the beat.
I can't imagine a congregation singing it, without some swaying hips and shrugging shoulders, and being entertained by the tempo and beat, instead of the words.
