With its origins dating back to the late 1960s, CCM resembles musical styles of popular-secular culture while retaining fundamental Christian values in lyrical content. This historical perspective of CCM marketing strategies, CCM music television, CCM and secular music, arts worlds within CCM, and the science of storytelling in CCM aims to provide readers with the context and understanding of the significant role that CCM plays in modern-day evangelism.

  • Ichthus Music Festival in Its Later Years Was to Reach out and Share the Gospel Message to Young People Through Contemporary Christian Music
    The Asbury Journal 75/2: 288-326 © 2020 Asbury Theological Seminary DOI: 10.7252/Journal.02.2020F.08 of Christian Music Comes to Wilmore It was the “dawning of the Age of Aquarius” as the 1967 musical Hair told us.1 The hippie and New Age Movements were in the ascendancy. The U.S. was in the middle of the Vietnam War. In 1969, it seemed like the counterculture exploded when on August 15-18 the Woodstock Music Festival was held near White Lake, New York. Political and cultural shifts were occurring at a breath-taking pace, and the evangelical church seemed remained isolated from much of this cultural change. Yet while cut off from much of what was going on in the U.S. culturally in 1970, an idea emerged, led by students (called the Christian Service Brotherhood) and their faculty advisor, Dr. Bob Lyon of Asbury Theological Seminary, of a Christian music festival as a counterpoint to Woodstock. Using the Wilmore campground, was established. It would continue as one of the major Christian music festivals in the U.S. until 2012, for 42 years, and would be called by at least one writer, the “granddaddy” of all Christian music festivals.2 Music plays a crucial role in youth culture, and rock and roll has within the context of the United States. While rock and roll partially grew out of gospel music, it took its own secular form of development and so was often actively opposed by many conservative Christians. As the academic study of Christian music has pointed out, The dilemma for Christian adolescents then is clear.
