THE ROLE OF GOSPEL MUSIC IN WORSHIP AT GBI DESA BARU PANCUR BATU SUB-DISTRICT DELI SERDANG REGENCY

Abstract

The lack of understanding of God's people towards the role of gospel music in worship at GBI Desa Baru, Pancur Batu District, Deli Serdang Regency, becomes an important issue and the reason why the lecturers of Darma Agung University and Tourism & Hotel Academy of DarmaAgung carry out the service at the church. The purpose of the community service is to explore the role of gospel music in worship and equip the congregation to implement it in worship life both in church and outside the church. Community education and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) are the methods in this community service activity. The results of community service increase the congregation's understanding of the role of gospel music in worship.
