No.... This is not true. They might be heard at the beginning and end but "over" the crowd.

You have visited my parents Church?

Have you ever stopped singing at Church and actually listened? Many Churches that I have visited have a dominate song leader over the congregation. Yes, not always, but generally if you stop singing you will hear him or her LEADING the singing.

Then you have an arrogant/dominant "song leader". Congregation singing is a "joint" effort in which all voices "BLEND". Song leaders... start and stop the various lines and refrains in a song. Nothing more. Nothing less. If you have such a situation.... then you have a problem. There are far too many "divas" when it comes to "song leaders".

I believe some just sing along and have a mic that amplifies them - naturally they are louder. I don't think they even think about it. I don't have any issues with the song leader being a little louder. Helps me stay in tune and on track.

Most good song leaders I know will "get in" the mic when necessary and "get out" of the mic the rest of the time.....

What makes this discussion convoluted is:

Some want to discuss CCM's use in church
Whereas the OP makes a more broad sweeping point against its use at all.

I think the discussion concerning CCM's in church is a more practical discussion..... Who cares what others think about what someone listens to in private.

Tell it to Frag. He is the one up in everyone's grill about it.  :(

Well ... some good ones don't do that I suppose.
 
57 pages on this issue, not one mind is changed...yet supposed independent local autonomous church proponents keep sticking their noses in what other churches and Christians do for worship.  Here you go...I don't care what genre or type of music your church uses in its worship, and it is non of your business what type of music my church uses.

Have a great day walking in the liberty of Christ! :)
