Saving Christian Music eBook Acoustic guitars, dull melodies, radio stations that play the same antiquated songs over and over again, lyrics full of clichéd Christianized jargon, pipe organs, and choirs stoically belting out traditional hymns are just a few of the stigmas associated with Christian music. These stereotypes are far from being completely true, but Christian music does have serious problems. Financial demands, corporate integration, and religious rhetoric have influenced Christian music in many negative ways. The styles, trends, technologies, and overall quality of art are progressing at a painfully slow rate. These factors, along with many others, have caused Contemporary Christian Music to become a genre that is becoming dangerously ethnocentric and insular to an audience that is increasingly diverse and modernized. "Saving Christian Music" is a collection of essays that delve into these issues and reveal how Contemporary Christian Music can save itself before becoming completely irrelevant to both secular and Evangelical audiences. |

In Spirit and in Truth Melva Costen explores the various genres of music used in African American worship. Moving beyond a traditional sociopolitical analysis, Costen examines music for worship in African American congregations through biblical, historical, theological, and liturgical lenses. Tracing the development of music in African American worship back to its roots in Africa, she surveys its emergence and its use in camp meeting songs, black-metered hymns, anthemized spirituals, Pentecostal music traditions, and contemporary gospel music. Costen concludes by offering models and suggestions for helping chose who plan worship to listen for the leading of the Holy Spirit and to continue listening during worship to discern how the Holy Spirit may be leading us. This important, groundbreaking work ultimately challenges music and worship leaders to reclaim and affirm traditional African American spirituality and its presence in African American music experienced in worship. |
