In this cultural history of evangelical Christianity and popular music, David Stowe demonstrates how mainstream rock of the 1960's and 1970's has influenced conservative evangelical Christianity through the development of Christian pop music.

This multidisciplinary volume takes up Ekenberg's question anew, investigating the interplay of New Testament writings, sacred spaces, biblical interpretation, and reception history of liturgical practices and traditions.
