I have been to our local biker church, and heard the band do great renditions, heartfelt, and appropriate, of "Midnight Rider" by the Allman Brothers, that to me says almost anything is possible

Cool, I love the wonders that can be done with arrangements, and I love that song specifically

I'll bet that using contemporary songs in a worship service can expand the reach of people that you will reach, I know that I relate to songs I know, and latch onto them, especially when they are presented in a different arrangement than I am accustomed to

I like hearing songs in different arrangements, I'd like to hear what the most original twists of using contemporary songs in a worship service

I think better you ask the church which is near to you.
They will give you a better idea.

I think you are right.
We need to ask to the nearest church regarding it.

Our church has contemporary praise songs as well as hymns. We pretty much are contemporary but for prayer meetings we go back to hymns. We like Chris Tomlin, Hillsongs, Matt Redman...
