Completely directed to music leaders. A great reminder of why they do what they do. This book is not for people trying to understand why certain music is right and other music wrong, though that is covered. It is intended for a reader who already has a grip on that truth and will then implement that into worship services. Great resource to have on the shelf!

The full hymn is printed, then Ken Osbeck provides a one-page summary of the author's life with focus on the circumstances of how each hymn came to be written.
I found it very helpful and insightful to learn the story-behind-the-story of each hymn. These poignant insights are very useful in explaining the hymn in Sunday school classes and to the entire congregation.
This book has my full recommendation, and for just ten dollars, it represents good value as well. The book is very readable for laypersons.… (plus d'informations)
