Prince was a spiritual and musical enigma who sought to transcend
race and gender through his words, music, and fashion. Raised as a
Seventh-Day Adventist and later going door-to-door as a Jehovah's
Witness, he expressed his faith overtly and allegorically,
erotically and poetically. Theology and Prince is an edited
collection on theology and the life, music, and films of Prince
Rogers Nelson. Written for academics yet accessible for the
layperson, this book explores Prince's ideas of the afterlife; race
and social justice activism; eroticism; veganism; spiritual alter
egos (with a deep dive into the dark character of "Spooky
Electric"); a queer listening of the Purple Rain album; the
theology of the Graffiti Bridge film (featuring interviews with
co-star Ingrid Chavez and other collaborators), and a story from
Texas of a Christian worship service designed around Prince's music
in the wake of his passing. Those interested in theology and
popular culture; scholars of social justice, racial identity,
LGBTQ+ studies, and gender studies; as well as Prince "fams" will
find new ways of viewing Prince's old and new works.
