This book offers a theoretically sophisticated and empirically rich
study of the intersections of contemporary Christianity and youth
culture, focusing on evangelical engagements with punk, hip hop,
surfing, and skateboarding. Ibrahim Abraham draws on interviews and
fieldwork with dozens of musicians and sports enthusiasts in the
USA, UK, Australia, and South Africa, and the analysis of
evangelical subcultural media including music, film, and extreme
sports Bibles. Evangelical Youth Culture: Alternative Music and
Extreme Sports Subcultures makes innovative use of multiple
theories of youth cultures and subcultures from sociology and
cultural studies, and introduces the "serious leisure perspective"
to the study of religion, youth, and popular culture. Engaging with
the experiences of Pentecostal punks, surfing missionaries,
township rappers, and skateboarding youth pastors, this book makes
an original contribution to the sociology of religion, youth
studies, and the study of religion and popular culture.
