Hello, all. I was doing some research on the CCLI, and I stumbled into an article claiming that it’s basically a scam. Here’s your link: https://www.christalmighty.net/2015/11/ccli.html
The TLDR is that the author claims that churches are exempt from copyright law for musical performance per a 1982 amendment to the Code, and he asserts fair use for the written lyrics to go with this.
I was wondering if anyone here could confirm or deny this. I do know that there’s an IP lawyer who has frequented this site from time to time (you know who you are 
), but if any of you know enough to speak to this, I’d appreciate it.
