In your opinion, what is the best mix of older songs versus contemporary songs in our worship?  Please give your personal preferences in percentages based upon 100%.  I know of traditional churches/services who sing 100% hymns.  There are many churches who now utilize newer songs 100% of the time.  Some congregations choose to go right down the middle with “blended” services and plan 50% contemporary songs and 50% hymns.

We realize that worship is about pleasing God, but the purpose of this poll is to determine your opinion.  Begin your comment to this post with answers to the three below, then, add any comments after that.

1.  My personal preference would be:

___% of traditional    ___% of contemporary

2.  The mix that best describes my home church would be:

___% of traditional    ___% of contemporary

3.  Given the composition of my church, I think it should be:

___% of traditional    ___% of contemporary

Please participate as it will be interesting to see the variety of thoughts and styles and perhaps to discuss and understand the reasoning behind these choices.
