Under Satan's Attack


Book Description

This is a recounting of an attack on a children's ministry through legal means. I have called it Under Satan's Attack because I truly believe that our battle is not just against flesh and blood but against the spiritual forces of darkness in heavenly places. I hope it will minister to you as a warning and an encouragement to know that the Father is with you in all that you go through should you find your church or ministry going through a similar trial. There is only one way that God can do through His church what He wants to do, and that is when there is total unity. This is not the condition of the church at this time. Denominations do not work together. Even churches within a particular denomination do not work together as they should. My own denomination did not come to me or stand by me during the attack on our ministry. This is so sad, and such a poor witness to a lost and dying world. This is the reason the state can have such a devastating effect on the church. They know we will not stand together, and because of this, they are able to destroy the church, one at a time. I firmly believe that if Christians do not begin to stand immediately, the churches in America will begin to face severe persecution. I believe the Lord is trying to warn us in order to keep this from happening. Will you do your part?

The Lyre of Orpheus


Book Description

The study of religion and popular culture is an increasingly significant area of scholarly inquiry. Surprisingly, however, Christopher Partridge's The Lyre of Orpheus is the first general introduction to the subject of religion and popular music. His aim in this book is to introduce a range of theoretical and methodological perspectives to be used in the study of religion and popular music and popular music subcultures. He addresses a range of issues from postcolonialism to postmodernism, from sex to drugs, from violence to the demonic, and from misogyny to misanthropy. Part One provides a general overview of the history of popular music scholarship and the key approaches that have been taken. Part Two looks at approaches from the perspectives of theology and religious studies, examining key themes relating to particular genres and subcultures. Part Three narrows the focus and examines key artists and bands mentioned in Part Two, including Elvis, Bob Dylan, Madonna and Björk. Written to be accessible to the undergraduate, The Lyre of Orpheus will also appeal to general readers interested in the role of religion in our culture.
