I have found an increasing commented on subject and one that is concerning to some men and that would be "Jesus is My Boyfriend" music. Noting that attendance and membership in church is markedly down among men compared to women, how should music directors handle this? I read one comment where in some songs if you replace the name of Jesus with "baby" you would have a Top40 hit. I almost think for some guys, worship music could almost be considered "homoerotic" and not really spiritual at all. I really think some "worship" music is not doing anything to promote worship of God with any sense of holiness.

Definately a perversiveness when it comes to alot of the christian music today. It all feel good, evokes flesh with no Word, and it just borderlines pleasure. Its like people wanna make love to their partner, but don't wanna listen to them when they talk, or be loyal when required. One night stand gospel.

God have mercy on us.
