We need more worship wars, not fewer.

“We need more worship wars, not fewer. What if the war looked like this in your congregation—the young singles petitioning the church to play more of the old classics for the sake of the elderly people, and the elderly people calling on the leadership to contemporize for the sake of the young new believers? This would signal a counting of others as more important than ourselves (Philippians 2:3), which comes from the Spirit of the humiliated, exalted King, Christ (Philippians 2:5-11). When I insist that the rest of the congregation serve as backup singers in my own little nostalgic hit parade of back-home Mississippi hymns, I am worshiping in the spirit all right, but not the Holy Spirit.  I am worshiping myself, in the spirit of self-exaltation.” Russell D. Moore, Tempted and Tried: Temptation and the Triumph of Christ
