Welcome!

The Richland Hills church of Christ in Texas shocked our fellowship by announcing they were adding an instrumental service in the Spring of 2007. Even conservative strongholds like Freed-Hardeman University have held unity discussions with the instrumental Christian Church back in the Fall of 2006. It is time that all members of the churches of Christ reconsider the historical and biblical reasons for our position on a cappella music.

This site will provide you with a historical context and the biblical hermeneutics to understand the issues. Content was provided by Jack Bower (Elder) of the King of Prussia PA., church of Christ. We are a non-instrumental church of Christ. The study of this material has significantly increased our congregations desire to continue using exclusively a cappella music.

We suggest you read the sections in the order presented to the left. If you would like a full copy of the information presented on this site, please e-mail: jebower@eastern.edu

God bless.
