What I know about the lack of singing

[your.sydneyanglicans.net] 26 Apr 2008--The following was taken from an article in February, 2007, called The day the music died. The author is addressing the factors that cause Christian musicians to struggle, in particular their congregations:

Musicians and singers who minister at Katoomba Men’s Convention invariably say how they are blown away with encouragement when they look out at 3000 men singing their hearts out. But take them back into their home congregations and if they are looking out onto a group of people who look like they are at a funeral, it is very discouraging. Some singers have felt like shaking members in the congregation to see if they are still alive.

So why don’t people sing? In my opinion, one major reason would be because they don’t know the songs! So why don’t people sing? In my opinion, one major reason would be because they don’t know the songs!
