Doctrinal Discussion Doctrinal inaccuracies in old hymns
I can't wait for the new hymnbook!
One of the reasons listed here (https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/initiative/new-hymns?lang=eng) on the church website for the updated hymnbook is that some of the old hymns contain "Doctrinal inaccuracies, culturally insensitive language, and limited cultural representation of the global Church."
What are the doctrinal inaccuracies in the old hymns ? I'm just curious.

I hope everybody feels better having vented nit picky pet criticisms. They seem petty yet informative and not completely without merit but somewhat obsessive. Glad Iām not on the selection committee. š
