Synopsis:

Weaving Bible stories together with intriguing details of the lives of blues musicians, he leads readers in a vivid exploration of how blues music teaches about sin, suffering, alienation, and worship. Nichols unpacks the Psalms, portions of the prophets, and Paul's writings in this unique way, revealing new facets of Scripture. "Getting the Blues" will resonate with all readers interested in Christianity and culture. In the end they will emerge with a greater understanding of the value of 'theology in a minor key' - a theology that embraces suffering as well as joy.
