In "From Rave to Revelation: A Journey of Faith Renewed," readers embark on an intimate journey through the raw and unfiltered reflections of a seasoned preacher who has undergone a profound spiritual transformation. This compelling first-hand account vividly narrates a tumultuous path through a maze of highs and lows, doubts and affirmations, stale rituals, and fresh encounters with the divine. Spanning over two decades of ministry, from the early 90s to a pivotal turning point in 2008, we walk through the preacher's self-professed "dead years" - a time characterized by disconnection and disillusionment where rituals felt empty and God seemed far away. Despite the external successes, the noisy crowds, and the arduous travels across the nation, a void lingered - a longing for something more real and tangible. The narrative takes a transformative turn as desperation gives birth to a fierce resolve to seek a deeper, more authentic connection with God. With heart-wrenching honesty, the preacher shares the relentless pursuit of the divine - a journey of pressing in and crying out for a fresh touch from heaven. It's a story of waiting, of persisting, and finally, of experiencing an unprecedented revelation that breathed life into dry bones and ignited a spirit of revival not just in the preacher, but in a whole community. Readers will be captivated by the vibrant depictions of a spiritual awakening that takes shape within the preacher's small but faithful congregation. It's a testimony to the power of unity, of prayer, and of the open heavens that can pour out when we dare to break free from religious complacency and denominational barriers to embrace a God who is ever pursuing us. As the preacher navigates the newfound freedom in Christ, glimpses of vibrant ministry moments come alive in the pages - a stirring tapestry of miraculous healings, prophetic utterances, and individuals being touched in profound ways. We witness a church that evolves from being inward-focused to one that reaches beyond its four walls, impacting the wider community and even drawing attention from the nation. Yet, at the heart of "From Rave to Revelation" is the preacher's authentic voice - a voice that pulsates with a vibrant rhythm of "hallelujahs" and a heartbeat synchronized with the divine, leading readers on a roller-coaster of emotional peaks and valleys as it seeks to articulate an indescribable encounter with God. A clarion call to all who yearn for spiritual authenticity, this book is not just a testimony but a beckoning, urging readers to step beyond the familiar, to dare to press in closer, to break free from the chains of ritual and religion, and to embark on a personal journey of faith renewed. It's an invitation to experience the transcendent joy that comes from a living, breathing relationship with God - a journey from rave to revelation.

This is the first extensive scholarly study of drone metal music and its religious associations, drawing on five years of ethnographic participant observation from more than 300 performances and 74 interviews, plus surveys, analyses of sound recordings, artwork, and extensive online discourse about music. Owen Coggins shows that while many drone metal listeners identify as non-religious, their ways of engaging with and talking about drone metal are richly informed by mysticism, ritual and religion. He explores why language relating to mysticism and spiritual experience is so prevalent in drone metal culture and in discussion of musical experiences and practices of the genre. The author develops the work of Michel de Certeau to provide an empirically grounded theory of mysticism in popular culture. He argues that the marginality of the genre culture, together with the extremely abstract sound produces a focus on the listeners' engagement with sound, and that this in turn creates a space for the open-ended exploration of religiosity in extreme states of bodily consciousness.

First published in 1967, this book gives some of the fruits of the author's study of Tikopia ways of thought as the result of three field expeditions. Most Polynesians became Christians more than a century ago but Tikopia had a substantial pagan population until quite recent years. This book of essays describes rites and beliefs of a people who still maintained their traditional institutions remote from civilization. Studies of totemism, of magic and of beliefs in the fate of the soul in the afterworld, not only throw new light on Polynesian attitudes but also contribute some novel ideas to the interpretation of standard theoretical problems in social anthropology. Studies of rumour, suicide, and a new essay on spirit mediumship, also provide links between social anthropology and psychology. A general review based on the author's visit in 1966 describes the modern position after the adoption of Christianity.

The popularization and cult-like following of electronic music has provoked new relations between men and machines, art and technology, and modern shamans and disc jockeys. New technologies and multimedia tools have awakened neo-ritual practices through the emergence of Psychedelic Trance parties, evoking tribal experiences inspired by a new shamanism, mediated by high-tech guide elements. Exploring Psychedelic Trance and Electronic Dance Music in Modern Culture investigates the expansive scope of Electronic Music Dance Culture (EMDC), the rise of Psychedelic Trance culture, and their relationship with new digital platforms. Drawing from perspectives in sociology, anthropology, psychology, aesthetics and the arts, religious studies, information technologies, multimedia communication, shamanism, and ritualism, this book analyzes the impact of new technologies on individual and collective behaviors in cyberspace. This innovative reference source is ideal for use by academicians, researchers, upper-level students, practitioners, and theorists. Focusing on a variety of topics relating to sub-cultures, human behavior, and popular culture, this title features timely research on alternative culture, electronic music festivals, ethnography, music and religion, psychedelic drugs, Psytrance, rave culture, and trance parties.
