17 Aug 1998 - Greenbelt festival end?
For 25 years Greenbelt has influenced a
generation through its Christian based programme. Music has ranged from U2 to Goldie
and from Ladysmith Black Mambazo to Cliff Richard. In its speakers and discussion,
Greenbelt has never been afraid to tackle some of the most demanding issues of our time.
With recently falling audiences, it appears that Greenbelt is no longer what appeals to
people and "if the spirit of Greenbelt and what it means to us is to survive, it must
change, as it has before, even if more dramatically. We have concluded our thinking with
a decision to end the festival as we know it and begin again with a completely new
approach in 1999 and onwards."

13 Jul 1998 - GMA Adopts Gospel Music Definition
Is there anything Christian about Christian music? Faced with an increasingly blurry
line between gospel music and wholesome-but-not-spiritual pop music, the Gospel Music
Association (GMA) board of directors has adopted an official definition to be used in
determining eligibility in its Dove Award competition. According to the new definition,
gospel music is "music in any style whose lyric is: substantially based upon
historically orthodox Christian truth contained in or derived from the Holy Bible;
and/or an expression of worship of God or praise for His works; and/or testimony of
relationship with God through Christ; and/or obviously prompted and informed by a
Christian world view." Source:
