Hello all,
Before I moved to the OPC I was playing organ in my former SBC. It was contemporary with a lot of choruses and happy clappy type stuff that I was playing. That was one of the reasons I left but not the only one. Although I liked playing I didn't care for what I was playing. It wasn't all that reverent but more like entertainment.
We don't have an organ in my present church but I have played the piano a few times since I've been there. I did help the local PCUSA a couple of times but no more.
Giving up organ has been causing me some regrets although I don't regret going to the OPC.
Is it time to quit? I can't decide. I suppose I could offer my services as a substitute organist in my area but I don't know if I should. There aren't any Reformed churches near me. Have any of you who play ever been in such a situation?
Take a look at craigslist. Good deals on organs are floating by all the time now. If I had the room I'd get myself a bigger one.
