Adrian Bawtree and Jonathan Arnold explore how music can help transform society and individuals through its power to inspire, heal and galvanise social cohesion and action. Drawing on their wealth of experience in community engagement through music and the arts, Bawtree and Arnold demonstrate how the biblical imperative to love one’s neighbour through practical and applied theology is evident through the use of music. Projects with the homeless, refugees, the imprisoned and the marginalised, as well as those suffering from dementia, are just some of the contexts in which they have brought the gift of music into the realm of social justice, with inspiring results.
