4.9/5 (31766 ratings)

Description:Who among us has not experienced hearing a song that moved us deeply, that spoke to us in a truly spiritual way? Millions of fans around the world have found that inspiration in the music of U2, arguably the biggest band in the world today. Now, on the heels of their latest studio album No Line on the Horizon, comes this engaging and informative examination of the spirituality that drives the band and its music.The author, who as a teen interviewed the fledgling band on their first U.S. tour, takes us from their upbringing in war-torn Northern Ireland, to their dominance over the music scene in the early 1990s, and then to their role as spiritual ambassadors to post-9/11 America. Throughout we get a picture of the spirituality that flows out of U2's music and how their influence has spread beyond music into issues such as AIDS activism, debt relief for developing nations, and the crisis in Darfur."There are a lot of reasons to listen to music, but one of the best is that a good song is like a portal into a whole realm of human experience. When I finished Greg's book, I imagined groups of people using it to organize listening parties. Greg references a great U2 song at the beginning of each chapter, along with some worthwhile things to ponder, and participants can pull up lyrics online and go through portal after portal to think and talk about things that really matter. I think U2 would be glad to know that sort of thing was happening through their songs." —from the foreword by Brian D. McLarenWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
