Utilising a three-part music semiology, this research engages with producers, musical texts, and audiences/congregations to better understand contemporary worship for the modern church and individual Christians. Christian Copyright Licensing International data plays a key role in identifying the most sung CCS, while YouTube mediations of these songs and their associated data provide the primary texts for analysis. Producers and the production milieu are explored through interviews with some of the highest profile worship leaders/songwriters including Ben Fielding, Darlene Zschech, Matt Redman, and Tim Hughes, as well as other music industry veterans. Finally, National Church Life Survey data and a specialized survey provide insight into individual Christians' engagement with CCS. Daniel Thornton shows how these perspectives taken together provide unique insight into the current global CCS genre, and into its possible futures. 606 $aChristianity 606 $aEvangelicalism 606 $aPentecostalism 606 $aMusic 606 $aChristianity 606 $aEvangelicalism and Pentecostalism 606 $aMusic 615 0$aChristianity. 615 0$aEvangelicalism. 615 0$aPentecostalism. 615 0$aMusic. 615 14$aChristianity. 615 24$aEvangelicalism and Pentecostalism. 615 24$aMusic. 676 $a261.58 676 $a200 700 $aThornton$b Daniel$0107742 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910863177803321 996 $aMeaning-making in the contemporary congregational song genre$92845543 997 $aUNINA
