  • A Sociological Analysis of Christian Contemporary Music and Aural Piety
    “FAITH COMES BY HEARING”: A SOCIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF CHRISTIAN CONTEMPORARY MUSIC AND AURAL PIETY __________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board __________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Courtney Sorrell Tepera August 2017 Examining Committee Members: Lucy Bregman, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion David Harrington Watt, TU Department of History Dustin Kidd, External Member, TU Department of Sociology © Copyright 2017 by Courtney Suzanne Sorrell Tepera ____________________________ All rights reserved iii ABSTRACT Over the past fifty years, Christian contemporary music has joined hymnody and psalmody as a major form of evangelical liturgical and devotional song. While the production and content of this genre have been explored by scholars, few studies have attended to the devotional use of the genre and its role in shaping the religious lives of American evangelicals. This project draws from several sets of data to address this matter: analysis of church-created worship music albums, listener testimonials on Christian radio websites, and focus group interviews of laity and clergy at four South Carolina churches. The data revealed that music is significant to their religious lives outside of church as a means of encountering God, managing emotions, and displaying spiritual capital. Inside churches, the music is used to create a sense of corporate identity that reinforces social bonds within the community and attracts newcomers. Drawing on the methodological framework of Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of practice and his work on social distinction, I argue that American evangelicals who listen to Christian contemporary music are engaged in aural piety, a set of practices, attitudes, and ideas invested in music that structure and evoke the experience of the sacred.

My thanks firstly to my parents, who taught me to read, love and respect the Bible, and who encouraged me to ask questions. Secondly to Don Gillman, who started to tease out more questions by challenging everything I thought I knew, and taught me to read and re-read and keep on reading; the sudden loss of his life during the early stages of this thesis robbed me of a close friend, important conversation partner and Bible teacher extraordinaire, but his dedication to searching the scriptures continues to inspire my own unending re-reading.

  • IMIGHT Most Requested), Was the Judgment Night Monious Vocals and Sweeping Lyrical Passages
    rrior Soul, "Shock Um Down", DGC/Geffen There's been a lot of uncertainty and speculation surrounding Warrior Soul's sta- tus with Geffen of late but, as you can see and hear, the band are on the verge of releasing their fourth album, ("Chill Pill")for the label. As it is, the band has been going through some changes internally, resulting in a new line-up, which boasts two new guitarists (replacing long time member John Ricco) and Mark Evans returning to the drum rostrum (Pete McClanahan continues his role as bassist). Anyone remotely familiar with Warrior Soul's psychedelic/punk rock latitudes can surely envision how totally kicking their material will sound WARRIOR S with two guitars blasting through now. Realize, however, that the album was recorded with the former line-up intact, and so we'll have to wait k until the band hits the road to check out the new, yet to be named. front line. As for Warrior Soul's newly shorn, (yes gals,rock's best locks have given way to a very cool & wild new doo) guiding spirit, Kory Clarke... he's handed down a record that is much less politically motivatedand noticeably more introspective (the title kind of says it all).It is a decidedly different record than the belligerent "Salutations", the radical "Drugs, God..." or the social rally- ing of "Last Decade...".You'll understand exactly what I mean when you hear it - it's quite cool (and very upbeat) and songs like "High Road" are rather unexpected. Back to the present The album is preceded by the punk fueled "Shock Um Down".It provides a great link between the full -on grind of past singles like "Wasteland" or "Blown" and Soul's new stance on life.

  • And Starring Jesus As Himself: Cultural Context and the Images of Christ in North American Film
    AND STARRING JESUS AS HIMSELF: CULTURAL CONTEXT AND THE IMAGES OF CHRIST IN NORTH AMERICAN FILM Rebecca Dawson A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2007 Committee: Angela Nelson, Advisor Jeffrey Brown Madeline Duntley ii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Advisor Jesus Christ may appear to be an unlikely candidate for movie stardom, yet few other figures have managed to both captivate and outrage its audience. From early appearances in silent epics to modern kung-fu action-comedies, depictions of Christ have done more than show his life and his message. The directors of these films, by using Christ’s image, have added a new interpretative dimension to the social issues and debate at the heart of each era of filmmaking. Post-Vietnam cynicism, feminism, gay rights, and the Christian Right have all found a champion in the character of Jesus. Jesus becomes malleable in a sense, as his image is changed and reconstituted to express the issues and beliefs closest to the filmmaker. This thesis will examine the evolution of the “Jesus film” in North American cinema, focusing on the varying depictions of Christ within four films; Jesus Christ Superstar (1973), The Last Temptation of Christ (1988), Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter (2001), and The Passion of the Christ (2004). These films may vary in their approach and depictions of Christ, ranging from a feminized neo-hippie to a very masculine and practically indestructible savior, yet they all present an evolution in how Jesus is presented and used in popular culture.
