On the Streets of Babylon: Beatles tunes replace Hymns on the Streets

Babylon is fallen, is fallen,..
Come out of her, My people,
Revelation 14:8/18:4


There seems to be "Beatles Songs Replacing Hymnson the Streets of Babylon....

"San Dieguito United Methodist Church is a progressive UMC congregation in Encinitas, CA. Led by Rev. Dr. Mark Maddix, they pride themselves on being a “welcoming and inclusive community” that endeavors to “think critically, love authentically, and serve
passionately
.”

Rather than believing the bible is inspired and inerrant, they instead “view Scriptures through the lens of church tradition, human reason, and lived experience.”
This low view of Scripture perhaps explains a recent church service, where rather than have their usual worship set consisting of songs that praise the Lord and give Him glory, they invited a Beatles tribute band to play Beatles tunes, including Let it Be, I Want to Hold Your Hand, Eight Days a Week, and, Twist and Shout."
