While many parents of today's teens treat rock music as a harmless part of growing up, "Truth About Rock" demonstrates how secular rock influences and hurts both Christians and non-Christians. It documents the ever more offensive lyrics and visuals of much of today's music and probes the lifestyles and goals of rock musicians. "Truth About Rock" is a spiritual handbook to making positive music choices as well as an encyclopedic look at teens' favorite rock artists, both classic and contemporary.

..Let me assure you, the reader, that I am not some slick author who will astound you with a myriad of words and descriptions beyond your understanding, but rather this book is written by an ordinary working man who has spent most of his life away from God, but having been saved by the Grace of God, and having accepted The Lord Jesus Christ into my life, I am now compelled by His Holy Spirit to battle for Him in this area which Satan has made his own. Because this book is written under the influence of the Holy Spirit, not only in content but also in direction, I urge you to read it under the influence of that self same Spirit. The aim of this book is to bring knowledge to Christians and non-Christians alike.

At the very least, this book is full to the brim with fun and entertainment: -The antics of the house dog, Winston. -The humorous side of ageing in Old Ain't for Sissies. -The fun and laughter shared with my best friend, at Scrabble, which only goes to show how "scrambled" our brains are! - The thrill and excitement of simulated sports contests. - Serendipity! Being Able to Spend Part and Parcel of Our Time Dwelling within the World of Rock Musical Manna from Heaven, a World where the Meaning of Sunny Day, Everything's A-ok, Has Never Been Forgotten!. At most, by incorporating good values into its lyrics, our thesis is that rock music becomes most powerful vehicle for popular education of young and old alike, because of the attractiveness of music, and esp. rock music, as packaging for education. Teaching great, often Christian type values, is one thing, seeing them implemented is an altogether different kettle of fish. Will rock music ever be able to spread its values beyond the idealistic young? Will the power of love ever rule the world? Will rock music enable/empower us to solve the world's problems? * I don't know the answer to these questions. But I do know that rock music, transformed my existence, into a life worth having. The inner world that opened up before my ears (and eyes), made me feel like a million bucks, and is the closest thing to heaven, ever to come my way! May we carry on this way, s'il vous plait!

This collection of articles, some of which are now out of print or otherwise difficult to access, provides an overview of the current state of research in the field of rock music, and includes an introduction which contributes to the ongoing debate over the distinction (or lack thereof) betweenrock andpop.

When rock ’n’ roll emerged in the 1950s, ministers denounced it from their pulpits and Sunday school teachers warned of the music’s demonic origins. The big beat, said Billy Graham, was “ever working in the world for evil.” Yet by the early 2000s Christian rock had become a billion-dollar industry. The Devil’s Music tells the story of this transformation. Rock’s origins lie in part with the energetic Southern Pentecostal churches where Elvis, Little Richard, James Brown, and other pioneers of the genre worshipped as children. Randall J. Stephens shows that the music, styles, and ideas of tongue-speaking churches powerfully influenced these early performers. As rock ’n’ roll’s popularity grew, white preachers tried to distance their flock from this “blasphemous jungle music,” with little success. By the 1960s, Christian leaders feared the Beatles really were more popular than Jesus, as John Lennon claimed. Stephens argues that in the early days of rock ’n’ roll, faith served as a vehicle for whites’ racial fears. A decade later, evangelical Christians were at odds with the counterculture and the antiwar movement. By associating the music of blacks and hippies with godlessness, believers used their faith to justify racism and conservative politics. But in a reversal of strategy in the early 1970s, the same evangelicals embraced Christian rock as a way to express Jesus’s message within their own religious community and project it into a secular world. In Stephens’s compelling narrative, the result was a powerful fusion of conservatism and popular culture whose effects are still felt today.
