Spirit-Filled Singing

A Biblical Framework for Intentional, Spirit-Filled Worship

Music can be a source of tension in many churches. Whether driven by preferences for specific styles, popular trends, or traditional practices, corporate worship can feel more divisive than unifying. How can we cultivate worship that honors God and strengthens his church in the midst of these challenges?

Spirit-Filled Singing offers a biblical framework to help believers engage in musical worship with greater intentionality and gospel-centered purpose. Drawing insight from Galatians 5 and Ephesians 5, author Ryanne J. Molinari explores how singing and the fruit of the Spirit share a common purpose—to glorify God and edify his church. Through concise, thoughtful chapters that explore each fruit of the Spirit, this audiobook invites listeners to examine their worship practices, assess the condition of their hearts, and grow in Christlikeness through song.
