Choosing a church for music?

Michael Spencer, The Internet Monk, has an outstanding article on "Praise and Worship Theology." Many people, Michael points out, make music the most important factor in choosing a congregation:

That's outrageously wrong, and I can't imagine why evangelicals are tolerating it. The demotion of preaching and the elevation of music is an invasion of the church by a culture that wants less content, less authority and more experience and feeling. Post-modern apologists may make the case that preaching is passe' (and some forms of it always will be) but preaching as a divinely sanctioned methodology has Biblical theology on its side.

Amen. It's good to see fellow Christians proclaiming the power of proclamation. When I began seminary in 2000, "seeker sensitive" services, with contemporary music and felt-needs evangelism, were the thing. Four years later, the tide seemed to have turned, at least in the circles I frequented, back toward the Word of God as the power of church health and growth.
