Why Johnny Can’t Sing Hymns: How Pop Culture Rewrote the Hymnal (T. David Gordon)
$9.75Changes in music have affected the way we think, the way we worship—even the way we are able to worship. We are steeped in a culture of pop music that makes other genres seem strangely foreign and unhelpful. Worship has become a conflict area, rather than a source of unity.
T. David Gordon looks at these changes in worship and not only examines the problems, but also provides solutions. They are solutions of great importance to us all—because how we sing affects how we live. Dr. Gordon not only shows the problems, he also provides solutions – it’s important, because how we sing affects how we live.

Childhood’s Songs of Long Ago: Divine and Moral Songs (Isaac Watts)
$15.95With a Collection of Sonnets, Prayers, and Simplified Piano Arrangements
Includes a brief biographical account of the life of the Rev. Isaac Watts, D. D. Piano accompaniments by Jacqueline Sprinkle. Spiral-bound for ease of use at the piano.
From the Introduction by Jacqueline Sprinkle to this 2007 edition:
“Contemporary Christian music is becoming a vast wasteland of fluff and the serious Christian finds himself being bombarded with vain repetitions, high decibel sounds, and heavy rock beats. These hymns by Dr. Watts were once standard literature for English and American children. The tunes we have chosen for the lyrics are also traditional hymn tunes which are very structured and easy to sing. The lyrics will be easily understood by children and will aid parents and teachers as they seek to apply biblical principles to every area of life.
We believe this volume will prove worthy as a children’s classic to be used alongside other volumes we now have in print, which are specifically selected for youth.”
