Music and Worship

Music is an extraordinary gift of God, uniquely suited to encourage our worship of Him, to build us up as people who love His glory, and to draw in the lost to gaze on His majesty. We praise God for the rich diversity of our Christian musical heritage, from “psalms, hymns and spiritual songs” for the congregation, to anthems of praise sung by a choir, and expressions of faith played by instrumentalists. Camelback desires to embrace all of Christianity’s best musical legacy, which stretches back a thousand years and continues into the present and beyond. The acoustics of Camelback’s sanctuary, renowned throughout the Southwestern United States, present a superb setting for singing and hearing musical praises to God.

The music ministry provides God-glorifying music for all corporate services, and high quality opportunities for the use of musical gifts within our membership. The music used praises and thanks God; proclaims truths about God; and teaches, admonishes and edifies the worshipers in attendance. Taken together with all the items in a service or meeting, music helps the membership praise God and encourage each other, doing so in such a way that nonbelievers in attendance also are drawn to know God (Rom 15:8-12). Camelback has many opportunities for musical participation, and continually is adding more. All ensembles are directed by godly and skilled musicians, many being leaders in the field of church and orchestral music, under the supervision of the Director of Music Ministries, Dr. Guy Whatley.
