The same standard a pastor uses when deciding what to preach in a sermon. A good pastor typically (I'd imagine) spends a good number of hours searching the scriptures, preparing their sermon, making sure what he says is correct. What if a pastor spent a proportional amount of time selecting the music with the same care he spends preparing sermons?
