Abstract
The perfect church does not exist. All churches have issues, and Church of Faith and Deliverance in Kinston, North Carolina, is no exception. The church has a problem within the music ministry. The purpose of this DMIN action research thesis is to teach and provide adequate training on the roles and responsibilities of the music ministry at Church of Faith and Deliverance. If the roles and responsibilities of individuals in the music ministry are taught at Church of Faith and Deliverance, then unity of worship may result. The church is a living and breathing organism. When parishioners gather in the worship atmosphere, the atmosphere should be conducive to receiving what God intends for the flow of worship. Teaching the roles and responsibilities of members in the music ministry connects the worship with the Word of God, embracing unity among the leadership of the church.
