Songwriters Are Teachers


Like it or not, songwriters are teachers as well. Many of the lyrics they write will be ingrained far more deeply and permanently in the minds of Christians than anything pastors teach from the pulpit. How many songwriters are skilled enough in theology and Scripture to qualify for such a vital role in the catechesis of our people?
