Abstract
Music in the church has evolved significantly over time, from George Frideric Handel to David Crowder, from Bill Gaither to Lecrae. Instead of being a ritual, it has become a form of expression meant to praise God. Worship has become more personal, but still expansive, reaching people around the world and being a gateway for sharing the Gospel. The performance of music in the church is not meant to entertain, but to reflect the Creator. I planned a concert where I performed several worship songs and showed many videos reflecting what worship is and what it means to people today. I then wrote about the process of planning this event and reflected on the impact it had on me.
