I guess it depends where you are performing the music and in what capacity? Questions like the following need to be answered first:

1. Will this music be performed during the worship service or anywhere in the church?

2. Will it be performed outside of the church?

3. Will it be performed by a group of people who represent a church?

Once these questions are answered then I think it will be much easier to answer your question, or at the very least give you a suggestion.

In my opinion if you are just performing on the street with a couple of buddies or something or singing in somebody's home then why not? Better to sing hymns then some hip hop junk.


What is the context?
