The Creator wants us to Drum. (God) wants us to corrupt the world with drums, dance, and chants. We've already corrupted the world with power and greed, which has gotten us nowhere. Now's the time to corrupt the world with drum, dance, and chants.----Babatunde Olatungi, Nigerian master drummer

Mark Taylor on polyrhythmic sensibility in the churches
A polyrhythmic sensibility in the churches honors the drum. Honoring the drum will often mean bringing the drum back into those worship settings from which it has been excluded…If we are ever to discover the fully effective Word where Spirit enlivens a Rhythm Word, then we need to begin with the drum’s re-entry into our places of worship.----Mark Taylor, professor of theology and culture, Princeton Theological Seminary.
