First, a bit of a disclaimer: Religion is as complicated as the people who follow it. Taking on even a small section of theology is a massive undertaking, and honestly, it's just a mess of different versions of all kinds of stories and beliefs. So that being said, let's talk about some of the bad boys of several religions: fallen angels. Everyone knows what angels are — wings, halos, all kinds of bright light and grace. Fallen angels started out not-so-different at all, and there's a lesson to be learned there. The first — and often, the only — fallen angel most people think of is the Christian version of Lucifer, who took on God, fell from heaven, and went on to run a nightclub and consult with the LAPD. But he's definitely not the only one, and different religious traditions even have their own and very different pantheons of fallen angels. They're a fascinating glimpse into what mere mortals fear most, and looking at just who fallen angels are and what they do tells just us just as much about ourselves as it does about them.

Millions of people profess a belief in Jesus Christ, but is their belief consistent with the biblical description of believing in Jesus? Can your faith in Christ be a counterfeit version of the real thing? Or, on the other hand, do you think faith in Jesus Christ is a meaningless, sentimental platitude? Do you consider belief in Christ the territory of religious fanatics who are out of touch with the practical needs, issues and realities of everyday life? The true Jesus of Nazareth thundered this warning to those who did not believe: “You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins” (John 8:23-24). Surely the question of faith in Jesus Christ is no light matter reserved for only the religiously sentimental. Ignorance can cost you your eternal life. The question that becomes immediately relevant is this: What does it truly mean to believe in the real Jesus Christ of the Bible? As we will see, belief in Christ means believing and trusting Him and doing what He says. by ACCENT TV

These are the easiest to look at because they’re the most objective. Here’s some questions to ask yourself: Is the range of the melody in a congregation friendly range? Congregations can comfortably sing within a range of B flat below middle C to the D a tenth above that. You can possibly push it a step or two beyond those boundaries briefly, but some will find it difficult or impossible to reach. Where does the bulk of the melody fall within that range? The technical term for this is the tessitura. If the song fits neatly within the range, but 90% of the melody is at either end of the spectrum, the congregation is going to have problems. Everyone will leave that day hoarse and unable to speak from fatigue. How complicated is the rhythm? In most worship songs, the balance between rhythm, melody and harmony work like a pie chart. The more complex or larger one piece is, the easier or smaller the others are. Complex rhythms and lots of syncopation can be a stumbling block, but singing everything with a straight quarter note beat is monotonous. Look for the balance between the two extremes that fits your demographic. The younger your demographic, the more you can push the boundary to the complex side because they grew up with more complicated music and are quicker at picking it up. What’s the form of the song? While not as critical as the other aspects, it bears noting that the simpler the form of the song (the verse-chorus-bridge structure) the easier it will be for people to remember it. It’s important to keep in mind since most churches using modern worship songs don’t use hymnals or printed copies of the songs. 2. The Music Here’s where it begins to get subjective. Personal preferences are important, as I believe that God can use them to help guide us to the right songs, but we can’t rely on them alone. You have to look at the whole picture, because it’s easy for us to get in the way. Personal preferences are important, as I believe that God can use them to help guide us to the right songs, but we can’t rely on them alone. You have to look at the whole picture, because it’s easy for us to get in the way. Is the melody interesting? Songs that repeat the same note or two for large portions of the song will quickly bore the congregation. It doesn’t matter if the lyrics are deep and meaningful – if the music is lame, they won’t be able to get past it to the lyrics. Is it singable? On the flip-side of the above question, a song can be too complicated for Joe Churchgoer to pick up quickly. Most churches using modern worship music (read: not hymns) don’t use hymnals or printed versions of the songs with music. I’m not interested in debating the merits of having printed music or using a screen – that’s not the focus of this post. However, even if you are using printed copies of the song, remember that people are less musically literate than they used to be. Just because they can hold it in their hand doesn’t mean they know what to do with it! Is it memorable? Another way to say it might be, is it different from your other songs or does it sound like everything else? One thing to keep in mind at all times: for every one time Joe Churchgoer hears a song, you (the one picking or performing the song) probably hear it five to ten times. It’s the nature of the situation. And just because he might hear it four or five times, it doesn’t mean he was actually listening and learning the song. (I’m talking here about hearing it in the car or on the radio – hopefully if he’s hearing it at church he’s listening!) 3. The Lyrics Lyrics are a critical component of a successful worship song. A church’s theology comes as much from its music as its sermons. In fact, the argument could be made that music is even more powerful for two reasons: 1. because sermons get preached once and songs get sung over and over and 2. because people will often come across the songs in different times and places that help to firm the ideas from the song in their minds. There are a few questions to ask when it comes to evaluating the lyrics: Is the theology solid? No song is going to be able to communicate all of God’s truth. There have been countless major works of classical music that have attempted to explore one aspect of God’s truth (Handel’s Messiah for instance, tells just the story of Jesus’ life and still clocks in at around 70 minutes for a performance time.) Each song used in worship should communicate some part of God’s truth. Are the lyrics… lyrical? Sounds like an odd question, but a song with solid theology can be very bland if it’s not written artfully. The flow of the words is as important as the truth they contain. by ACCENT TV

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness. The best way to prevent and slow down transmission is be well informed about the COVID-19 virus, the disease it causes and how it spreads. Protect yourself and others from infection by washing your hands or using an alcohol based rub frequently and not touching your face. The COVID-19 virus spreads primarily through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes, so it’s important that you also practice respiratory etiquette (for example, by coughing into a flexed elbow). At this time, there are no specific vaccines or treatments for COVID-19. However, there are many ongoing clinical trials evaluating potential treatments. WHO will continue to provide updated information as soon as clinical findings become available. Stay informed: by ACCENT TV
