I think of praise music as something suitable for baptized elevators...
We had a choir director (a disaffected Catholic) who tried to introduce praise music into our Catholic parish with the Celebration Hymnal (which has other stuff, but she wanted the praise music). Since I made the donation that paid for the hymnal budget, my opinion held sway and we stuck to something a little less bouncy.

By the way, Jerry Rasmussen, we ALL need you!
