In this episode, we, along with our friends Celia and Colleen from Assemblies of Pop Podcast, share our memories of Christian music and the culture created around it (music festivals, etc): we talk about TobyMac, Family Force 5, DC Talk, Dara Maclean, the big worship bands like Hillsong and Bethel, and other artists of various genres that have been lumped into the Christian label. We discuss how our relationship to Christian and/or worship music changed as we went through faith deconstruction, and the kinds of music we enjoy listening to now (we can listen to “secular” pop music and other things our parents or our own evangelical selves would not allow us to listen to!). We also chat a little bit about hymns at the end, because discovering the richness of worship music that existed before the 1960/70s to the present has been helpful to the spiritual growth of several of us. Here is a playlist that has the Christian music we still like (whether for the nostalgia or genuine appreciation) and other tunes we’ve been enjoying these days: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/42oWcyynPYAtrbpgEYoos9?si=c44f0d5706b14ba1 We have merch!
