    June 21, 2020 Virtual Sunday Service of the Camrose Church of God, led by Kayla Dahl Music links go to YouTube, or use our Spotify playlist. To respect the resources entrusted to us, do not print unless required for visual purposes. Consider joining with others for a time of worship as you celebrate Father’s Day. How about a backyard worship and BBQ with your family or small group? Who can you invite who needs some (socially distanced) friendship? Who does not yet have a personal relationship with Christ? Who can you share this link with this week? HAPPY FATHER’S DAY! Today we are going to spend some time talking about how we see Jesus, even through our imperfections and sinfulness. It’s hard to imagine that a holy, perfect, sinless Father would even want to spend time with us. Ever. But He does, so what does that mean for us in practical application? Let’s begin our journey by inviting our heavenly Father to bless our own fathers, and our worship today: Lord, today we celebrate who You are as our Heavenly Father. Thank you for our earthly fathers, and for those who stepped in as fathers when we needed them. We know they are gifts from You. Bless them today! Thank you for the presence in our lives of those fathers who have passed away. Through the love of our Christian dads, we learn more about who You are as our Dad. Bless them and show them ways to demonstrate Your love in a secular world that passes by the Christian man.

  • An Examination of Contemporary Christian Music Success Within Mainstream Rock and Country Billboard Charts Megan Marie Carlan
    Pace University DigitalCommons@Pace Honors College Theses Pforzheimer Honors College 8-21-2019 An Examination of Contemporary Christian Music Success Within Mainstream Rock and Country Billboard Charts Megan Marie Carlan Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.pace.edu/honorscollege_theses Part of the Music Business Commons An Examination of Contemporary Christian Music Success Within Mainstream Rock and Country Billboard Charts By Megan Marie Carlan Arts and Entertainment Management Dr. Theresa Lant Lubin School of Business August 21, 2019 Abstract Ranging from inspirational songs void of theological language to worship music imbued with overt religious messages, Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) has a long history of being ill-defined. Due to the genre’s flexible nature, many Christian artists over the years have used vague imagery and secular lyrical content to find favor among mainstream outlets. This study examined the most recent ten-year period of CCM to determine its ability to cross over into the mainstream music scene, while also assessing the impact of its lyrical content and genre on the probability of reaching such mainstream success. For the years 2008-2018, Billboard data were collected for every Christian song on the Hot 100, Hot Rock Songs, or Hot Country Songs in order to detect any noticeable trend regarding the rise or fall of CCM; each song then was coded for theological language. No obvious trend emerged regarding the mainstream success of CCM as a whole, but the genre of Rock was found to possess the greatest degree of mainstream success. Rock also, however, was shown to have a very low tolerance for theological language, contrasted with the high tolerance of Country.

Committee Member ______________________________ Michael P. Graves, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________ James Nutter, D.A. Honors Director ______________________________ Date Good Monsters Criticism 3 Abstract Images of Frankenstein and the boogeyman no doubt come to mind when one thinks of monsters. Can a monster be “good”? What does it mean to be something typically personified as bad and yet apply such a contradictory adjective? What do men dancing in brightly colored costumes have to do with people dying every day in sub-Saharan Africa and other parts of the world? These are just some of the questions inspired by a curious and unforgettable artifact. This study is a rhetorical analysis of the Jars of Clay song and concept video, Good Monsters . Within the professional and social context of the video’s release are many clues as to the intention of the creators of the text. How can a greater meaning be understood? The first methodology used in this study is metaphoric criticism, which is applied to the lyrics, visual images, and musical movements of the artifact.
