I think many people wouldn't like Jesus' church if He did have one, that's for sure :) Paul was familiar with secular cultures and poetry and used them in his ministry. I think there is a needed place when it's appropriate for secular music in church. -Prelude to the service. Wow what an incredible way to to help guests lower their heightened level of uncomfortableness. I used to play U2 and such before our church services. -Special music - instances where song would enhance the meaning and message of word being delivered. Many times there are brilliant topical and spiritual songs written by artists not under a "Christian" label. -Within worship! We use the beat/tempo/style of With or Without You to sing Blessed Be Your Name (same chord progression and such) Its a bit disappointing this didn't garner as much discussion as the previous post. I'll head on over to read the link! What a funny question: would Jesus use secular music in His church. I think many people wouldn’t like Jesus’ church if He did have one, that’s for sure :)
