Description
God rocks! Or at least for an increasing fraction of the global population he does. No longer associated with evangelical 'happy clappers' sporting tambourines and sandals, these days the Christian message is being delivered by a swelling number of faithful musicians from every genre -- rock, pop, R&B, dance and country. Of course, the real aim to promote God remains, but at least it's not so cringeworthy anymore. In Faith, God & Rock 'n' Roll, Mark Joseph profiles the current crop of American bands and artists with a spiritual message, looking at the challenges they face in reconciling their rock 'n' roll lifestyles with deep-rooted religious convictions. Featuring key interviews with some of the most prominent acts on the music scene, Faith, God & Rock 'n' Roll charts what's going on with God stateside. Book jacket.
