Aggressive Intimidation for Acceptance of CCM among Fundamentalist Churches

“The mutation of CCM (contemporary Christian music) is widening with such force and velocity that its aggressive intimidation for acceptance has pressed itself within the sacred precincts of Fundamental churches. This has happened to such a degree that my dear father believes the ‘war against CCM has basically been lost in Fundamentalism.’ Unless the preachers (pastors) stand up and clean out the contemporary songs from both choir and congregation, all will be over for the spiritual soundness of our churches. Once the contemporary taste is in the heart, the return to a more excellent way will never be desired. Has the Fundamentalist movement lost the battle against CCM?”
