There are other options. Diverse music teams can take turns leading on a Sunday morning. Different styles of music can be brought together in one meeting. More importantly, the church can be taught that setting aside their musical preferences for the sake of others is obeying Philippians 2:4: "Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." Taking this path will probably require patient instruction, but over time the congregation will begin to see that the determining factor in our unity is not musical styles-it's the gospel.
