Tim Fisher is well known for his work in several different fields of musical endeavor. After receiving both a B. A. and a M. A. degree from Bob Jones University, he taught there on the music faculty for nine years. While a student and a faculty member, he spent his summers and weekends travelling to local churches ministering the Word of God in song. Tim has sung in over one thousand churches all over the United States and in several foreign countries. Presently he and his wife, Deborah, are involved with a ministry of travelling and singing for churches, conferences, and evangelistic meetings. In 1988 Tim founded Sacred Music Services, an organization dedicated to providing sacred recordings for the home. In this capacity Tim uses his abilities as both an arranger and a producer to bring together a variety of groups including a children's choir, and orchestra, a men's choir, and a brass choir. Sacred Music Services has achieved a reputation for producing some of the finest traditional sacred recordings available today. As a speaker Tim travels frequently to conferences, Christian colleges, and high schools to discuss the issues of Scripture and music. The Battle for Christian Music grew out of a need the author saw to address some of these issues in more detail. Tim also writes for and edits Church Music Dynamics, a bimonthly newsletter for church musicians. Tim brings a unique but biblical perspective to the often controversial subject of Christian music. His involvement as a teacher, a singer, and arranger and producer of music, and a student of the Bible gives him the background needed to address many different areas of musical concern today. |
