S5E9 - Why C. S. Lewis Would Hate Hillsong & Sing it Anyway - "On Church Music" & Other Essays
Exploring a 1949 article C. S. Lewis wrote, "On Church Music," in which he tackles the ongoing argument about musical style and quality in church and concludes that the best worship is when we dislike the style but sing anyway because our fellow brothers and sisters seem to be edified by it, for true worship is sacrifice. We include pieces from "Correspondence with an Anglican who Dislikes Hymns" (1946) and Lewis' review of The Oxford Book of Christian Verse (1940, published in Image and Imagination).
