Music and singing are a unique and fundamental part of collective worship. Unique in its distinction as an act of communal and participatory worship, different from the reading of the Bible, prayer and preaching of the Word, by its unifying nature, where the whole Church joins in one. voice to sing praises to God.
Music is also an important part of Scotland’s cultural identity.

In 20 patterns, we hope to see people saved from their sins and put their faith in Jesus. When this happens, saved sinners suddenly have the greatest and most exciting story they’ve ever had to share. They begin attending the local church. , they tell their stories (testimonies) once on the day of baptism, they learn the repertoire of hymns and songs written hundreds of years or more recently by American professional worship leaders. So keep your mouth shut, keep your stories to themselves and just continue the “Christian life”.
We were created in the image of the Creator, we are a local church full of creators, so the plan is:
We want to continue teaching existing hymns and songs to new believers and welcome them to what we are already doing. Use well-written and well-written hymns and Bible songs of all common surnames, present and past, while creating an environment where local churches also sing their own distinct repertoires to deepen relationships and mutual encouragement.
(*) Don’t we create new artists? Local churches sing their own chants, testimonies, prayers, experiences in a solid biblical framework, and a true doctrinal understanding that is ultimately a responsibility to God, his Word, and therefore his church. We’re not trying to do anything new either. It’s not about being innovative; we are not trying to reinvent the wheel, it is about allowing more stories of God’s work to be expressed and heard.

My name is Sun Fenne. I am a musician, who was saved from all my sins by Jesus Christ. With my wife Carlie and our children Hamish and Betsie, I live in Gracemount. We have been members of the Niddrie Community Church since 2008 and are now part of the Gracemount Community Church implementation team.
I am a composer who has performed at the Royal Albert Hall in London, as well as on BBC Radio 2 and BBC. I am also a former professional percussionist and drummer who has performed in different local bands and ensembles for the last 20 years.
I’m nobody in the music industry, but I got a gift from God for music and a passion for it. There are as many people as I am. My role in all this will be:
There’s a lot of talent and skill in 20schemes and I think our churches are full of creative writers, composers and potential artists who have no chance of being heard, and I’m very excited about all this. . There is already a central core of musicians and composers in our churches that will form the basis of the project.
In the meantime, I’m already planning several music blogs for the coming months, where I’ll discuss biblical events for song composition and the ‘Scottish working-class musical culture’.
