Abstract
Shout to the Lord: Making Worship Music in Evangelical America
Highlights
Kelman’s monograph Shout to the Lord: Making Worship Music in Evangelical America describes the variety of forces at work in producing evangelical worship music in the United States
Kelman’s analysis includes examinations of songwriting practices, the leading of worship services, and the infrastructures that enable the distribution, intermediation, and consumption of evangelical worship music
Kelman explains that scholars have tended to distinguish between contemporary Christian music and worship music, which are relatively undifferentiated stylistically, by focusing on their utility: the former serves primarily as entertainment in public venues and private listening, while the latter focuses a congregation’s attention on the object of worship during a church service
