David’s Psalms in the New Testament Church, by Clyde Symonnette. This will be shortly followed by an article by Ryan Christian on organizing an instrumental service and then a conclusion by me. That’ll be it.
The article by Clyde is a last-minute addition I prevailed on him to write, using material from comments he’d posted. His ideas were so intriguing, I just had to get them into article form!

Please make a point of helping to spread the word about this series — among all factions of the Churches of Christ. These articles won’t do much good unless they’re widely read. Post notes in aippropriate forums and on your own blogs and otherwise help be sure these articles are noticed. As the next few posts will show, this won’t be just a rehash of the old canned arguments.
All this rigamoreu on instruments when just changing the name of your church would fix it all. Shameful.
