Discovering Eternal Truth in Unlikely Music. Steve Stockman essays the music of 13 artists who have never made any Christian profession but whose work is undergirded with issues, questions and solutions that seem to be very much biblical. From The Beatles to Springsteen, Marley to Radiohead, there is biting spiritual insight and challenge between the lines. Could God be speaking in these unlikely places? Are we listening?
Steve Stockman is the author of Walk On: The Spiritual Journey of U2 (Relevant Books). He’s also the host of a radio show on BBC Radio Ulster, a poet and founder of the website Rhythms Of Redemption, which covers Christian faith in art and culture.
