description: The purpose of this book is twofold - to document recent trends in rock and to analyze its effect on the young. Does rock music promote drug use? Doe rock music dabble in the occult? Does rock music promote promiscuous sexual activity? Is rock rebellion? Does rock music promote Satanism? Is rock music at least a tool of Satan? Does music affect or reflect the prevailing mind set of a society? Is rock music physically harmful? Is rock music spiritually harmful? What is Christian rock? Does Christian rock have a place in our churches, schools and homes? Are we at a major crossroad in history where we must decide on appropriate music for entertainment and worship? Can a Christian be a rock listener with absolutely no spiritual harm? What are teen idols and why do they exist? Why do some young people turn to heavy rock while others prefer light rock? What are the economics of rock? What is the audience which financially supports and listens to rock? Since rock fans are primarily teens - what is a teenager? What are the lifestyles of rock artists? Finally, what does God have to say about all this? How is music portrayed in the Bible? What are the scriptural guidelines? --- excerpt from book's Prologue
