Sacred Pop: Spiritual Songs from Secular Culture
Friday, April 28, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
The line between sacred and secular music has been debated ever since the beginning of Christianity. At 7pm on Friday, April 28th, musicians from Hamline Church will perform songs from popular culture that have underlying theological tones and messages that relate to Christianity, as well as spiritual values regardless of culture.
Through a performance of diverse music from different genres, they will demonstrate how any style or song is a potential mediator of the sacred and that despite the label of “secular,” many artists from popular culture include spiritual messages and philosophies in their work.
Artists selected will include Bruce Springsteen, Mavis Staples, Stevie Wonder, Carrie Newcomer, Leonard Cohen, and others!
