The Gospel Music Scene in Ghana has been blessed with the proliferation of gospel musicians and we have all enjoyed the good gospel music provided by these musicians.

However, very little has been done to teach, correct and scripturally direct the music types that are labeled gospel, from our pulpits and churches and even from the recording studios.

We have all enjoyed gospel music without effectively addressing the problems that sometimes accompanying them.

For example, unscriptural lyrics, wrong motives for singing, materialism and the temptation to appeal to non-Christians which sometimes leads to comprise are some of the problems.

Kwabena Frimpong has gone to all length to put this right and has blessed the gospel music industry with two inspiring with two inspiring, practical, direct and scriptural books, “Wait A Minute! Musician” and “?And God created musicians! all published by Combert Impressions.

“Wait a minute Musician! deals with truths and principles that can guarantee excellence in the ministry of music. It creates awareness of certain attitudes and perceptions that are critical to success and others that will guarantee failure.

It outlines how one can could excel according to God’s standards and not by the standards of men”.“?And God created musicians!” is a practical ‘hands on’ book that explains in details how a musician ought to function. It explains what music was created for and thus what a musician is actually capable of.

It practically teaches how music can work under God’s inspiration to leave God’s inspiration to leave the arena of mediocre compositions of performances for musicians stretch their knowledge and skill to produce a mature ministry that would command the respect and the admiration of all.

As the author so rightly puts it “Our success or failure in this ministry is not really dependant on how many ‘good’ ideas we have. It is rather dependant on how well God is able to get through to us”.

Kobby (as he is affectionately called) has actually been involved in raising, building and training music groups for over twenty-two year and he sees these two books as his contribution to the gospel music industry.

He believes these books will revolutionalise perceptions, challenge musicians and inspire them to ‘do it God’s way’ so that they can experience God’s hand in their ministry and not simply handclaps.

Gospel artistes, songwriters, leaders of music groups, soloists, church leaders, worship leaders, lovers of music, producers of gospel artistes and the general public can get copies of these books at all Challenge Bookshops nationwide.
