NEW feature of the Historical Jesus podcast called ACAPELLA presents the enthralling, riveting, epic story of Christian music. One cannot underestimate the importance of Christian Hymns and how their powerful melodic messages greatly shaped modern Christianity. The Bible is the most significant book in the Western canon. It’s also the book upon which the post antiquity Western civilization was built upon, including the occidental music traditions. Together we will try and understand why this immensely important and influential book, religion, and its vocal hymns inspired so many of the faithful over the centuries. Although our planet is populated by adherents to many different religions, as well as secular atheists and agnostics, one should never undervalue the key role played by Christianity and the Judeo-Christian traditions in the evolution of the ecclesiastical and popular music we enjoy today.
