MUSIC

“Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;”

– Ephesians 5:19

God alone is our audience, and He is the reason for our song; therefore, it is our desire that the music of EBC is glorifying to Him and sound in doctrine. The LORD deserves our very best, and thus we emphasize the value of a quality musical education. The principles of music theory and four-part harmony are taught during a yearly Music School. We encourage children and adults alike to cultivate a knowledge of and appreciation for sacred music.

The songs of Emmanuel Baptist Church are traditional and doctrinal, exalting only the Lord Jesus Christ. We strongly resist the Contemporary Christian Music movement.

The Music Ministry includes:

• Congregational Singing
• Special Music
• Choir
• Ensembles
• Shape Note Method Instruction for 4-Part Harmony
