Music is so much a part of our lives. We are constantly exposed to its influences on a daily basis. Loud beats, clever melodies, catchy lyrics, all draw us into its arena and reinforce what behaviourists have always known: music is powerful. Its influence has a profound effect on the human mind – whether for good or bad.
The ancient Greek philosopher Plato recognised the power of music when he said, “when the music changes, the walls of the city shake.” Music is much more powerful than any drug, for it has the capacity to steer culture itself and influence values and behaviours.
It is hardly surprising then that Satan seeks to control the modern music industry in order to erode morality and shape lives for his own purposes. As Christians, we need to be aware of this reality and of the negative impact a lot of modern music can have upon us. This goes beyond song lyrics and concerns the spiritual dimension of music and its impact upon us.
Jeremy will help us to better understand these things and of the need to be discerning with the kinds of music we are exposed to.
