It’s been exciting, rewarding and difficult to see this dream for a music 12 magazine that focuses on Christian heavy metal, rock, punk, alternative, etc., come Hard news to life and carry on. We are grateful to God and His people for the support we’ve Live report 14 had over the years. Over the years we’ve had a few special “Anniversary issues” (our 7th, 10th, 15th, issue #100 and the 20th). To be slightly different this time – in addition to some retrospective articles – we’ve centered this issue around a FEATURETTE daunting task: The Top 100 Christian Rock Albums of All Time list. This brings me to my next point: Stryper 16 There is a flaw in the label “Christian Rock.” We’ve all known this forever, right? Altar boys 18 There are four popular explanations of what defines a song or album as “Christian 20 Rock.” They are: Scaterd few Tourniquet 22 24 1) the song features lyrics that tell the Gospel story (sin, salvation, Jesus); Brandon ebel 2) the song features lyrics that, while not necessarily conveying the Michael guido 26 “Gospel message,” are shaped by a Christian worldview; 3) the song is performed by and/or written by Christian musicians (including instrumental music or “secular” lyrical themes); FEATURE 4) the song is considered “Christian rock” by many Christian people or, 28 for lack of a better term, it is “of interest” to Christians. The top 100... 40 It is the fourth definition that we’ve kind of gravitated towards over the years. Haste the day 42 Because we’ve taken this approach, some of our selections on this great list might Impending doom be questioned by purists and/or the bands themselves. If your band is on this list Norma jean 46 and you don’t consider yourself to be a “Christian rock” band or you’ve even gone 48 to great lengths to distance yourself from this career-influencing tag, we have a half- HM magazine flippant and half-sincere apology for you. “Sorry. It is what it is. Deal with it.” Slayer says 51 A great man once said, “The purpose of lists is to inspire argument.” While no one may have ever actually uttered that statement, I believe it. We hope you enjoy this issue. As always, let us know what you think!

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.
