소통의 매개체로서의 교회 음악사역의 선교적 역할

Abstract

Korean Church is conducting church music ministry through concerts and music education in order to effectively deliver the gospel to the local community. However, due to the lack of cases studied on the church music ministry, this study conducted case studies on the missionary role of church music ministry as a medium of communication. To this end, the researcher studied literature on church music ministry of cultural mission with a concept of communication and selected 9 churches that serve church music as cultural mission to interview their pastor and music director, examining the missionary role in church music ministry based on the interview. The results of a case study on the missionary role in the concert and music education as church music ministry are as follows. First, the result of missionary work was to communicate with the local community through concert, thereby providing opportunities for people to see religious life through culture. This is a direct and indirect acceptance of the gospel by communicating naturally with the community by providing cultural benefits for each region's needs. Second, by communication with the local community through music education, gospel preaching based on relationship is displayed as the result of missionary work. This is the basis for naturally experiencing the gospel as it is linked to healing, recovery, self-realization and nurturing of talented people. In addition, use of church music genre and worship through church music ministry as the site of cultural missionary work plays a missionary role. Also, church music history not only helped to grow the faith of the people in the church but also led to unity within the church. Thus, as a medium of communication, church music ministry not only has a positive impact on churches but also is a tool for communicating with the local community for the restoration of the relationship and naturally pursue missionary work by promoting the value of Christian culture. This suggests that the practice of the 'God's Nation Movement' among the seven major movements of the Declaration of Reformed Life Theology is being carried out through the field of the church music ministry. The fact that the church was able to proceed with the church music ministry despite the lack of financial and professional planning skills indicated that the church's interest in the church music ministry and the will of the pastors and music directors were the driving forces of the church music ministry. However, a compromise is needed to play the role of church music ministry, given the negligence of the pastoral ministry due to the church's music ministry and the fact that the church's music programs can only be recognized as cultural ministry. Lastly, based on the results, this study presented the development of music programs with religious experience mixed, the necessity of awareness and education on church music ministry for Christian musicians, the data collection on church music ministry based on this study, and the preparation of practical measures through role models in church music ministry.
