Poll: What is your response when the worship band plays a song you really don’t like?

by on February 8, 2008 in poll

We’ve all been there. The band starts playing the worst song ever written and you feel yourself gasping for spirit filled air. Be honest with this one. I know all you religious people are going to say you worship right through it as we should, but I want honesty. So answer the poll on the right hand side bar after really examining what you do, not what you want to do.

    I voted “quietly pray” on this one, but I wanna explain. This poll immediately took me to an all-day conference/seminar I attended while living in Richmond, CA about 5 years ago. My sister-in-law and I were corralled into the Female’s Room to worship and pray. I don’t remember a single thing about that day except that the 2nd song they lead was “I Believe I Can Fly”. That’s right… R Kelly. I looked around the room in horror and disbelief thinking “There’s no way this is real.”, only to see almost 100 women raising their hands and swaying as if God Himself were giving them a self-esteem boost. So my “quiet” prayer is usually an internal ranting of “God, what is happening? How can this be seen as worship to You? Forgive us God. This is appalling to me and abhorring to you.” Usually, this is my reasoning for taking myself out of the “worship” service. If I don’t like I song purely based on melody or the fact that its 15 years old… I do TRY to press through. If the issue is lyrical, biblically unsound or straight heresy, I can’t go for that.
