Music Ministry
At Timberlake, we desire our music ministry to be God-centered, doctrinally informed, reverential, heartfelt, and joyful—with everything being done for the purpose of edification. Our music includes a blend of old and new songs in various musical styles. It is primarily congregational in nature, supplemented with specials by the choir and other gifted individuals. The presentation of music in our worship services is always about ministry, leading people to actively engage in worshipping God, and not to simply sit through a performance. The purpose of singing at Timberlake is to focus attention on God and raise affection for God. We want to exalt the name of Christ and be a spiritual encouragement to the body of Christ through psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs according to Ephesians 5:19-21 and Colossians 3:16.
We have put together a document that gives a comprehensive overview of our music ministry at Timberlake. Part One explains why we sing in our church services. Part Two explores the Biblical philosophy that drives all our decisions in the music ministry. Part Three provides an example of a typical progression of a Sunday morning service. Part Four describes additional guidelines for those who participate in our music ministry. You can access the Music Ministry Philosophy and Guidelines here: TBC Music Ministry Philosophy and Guidelines
