"If reformed theology hopes to impact contemporary and future societies as much as possible it will have to harness the unique power of music to influence the world beyond the walls of the church. In this essay , I want to draw attention to the ways in which christianity, in general, and reformed theology, in particular, are criticized through music and what we can do to respond. It will introduce an approach to christian apologetics, which i call sonic-apologetics that enables our music-makers to defend the faith musically. In the first part of this paper, i will discuss five problems to which sonic-apologetics is an answer. This will anchor the second part of this essay, in which i construct sonic-apologetics from three notions: (1) methodological emphasis on effects, (2) genres of expression, and (3) the distinction between linear and angles apologetic responses. In the final part of this essay, I present two different study cases of sonic-apologetics. Nothing about what i will discuss regarding sonic-apologetics changing existing liturgical norms of Christian churches, especially reformed ones. It does, however, call for those producing and performing music in these churches to direct their music-making interests and abilities towards the world outside the church walls"

"Apabila teologi Reformed diharapkan sebanyak mungkin berdampak kepada masyarakat masa kini dan masa depan, keunikan dari kekuatan musik untuk mempengaruhi dunia di luar tembok Gereja haruslah diberdayakan. Di dalam esai ini, penulis ingin menunjukkan bagaimana kekristenan, secara umum, dan teologi Reformed, secara khusus, dikritik melalui musik dan apa yang dapat kita lakukan untuk merespons. Penulis akan memperkenalkan sebuah pendekatan di dalam apologetika Kristen yang disebut sonic-apologetics yang memampukan para pembuat musik untuk mempertahankan iman melalui musik. Di dalam bagian pertama dari esai ini, penulis akan mendiskusikan lima masalah dan bagaimana sonic-apologetics menjawab. Ini yang kemudian akan menjadi dasar untuk bagian keduadari esai ini, yaitu penulis akan membangun sonic-apologetics dari tiga gagasan: (1) penekanan metodologis dari efek, (2) genre dari ekspresi, dan (3) perbedaan antara respons apologetikalinear dan angle. Di dalam bagian terakhir dari esai ini, penulis akan memaparkan dua studi kasus yang berbeda dari sonic-apologetics. Sonic-apologetics yang didiskusikan di sini tidakakan mengubah aturan liturgika yang sudah terdapat pada gereja-gereja Kristen, terutama yang Reformed. Tetapi sonic-apologetics mengajak para produser dan pemusik di dalam gereja-gereja ini untuk mengarahkan minat dan kemampuannya untuk membuat musik kepada dunia di luar tembok gereja. "

"Public and scholarly interest in early adulthood has increased over the past decade, spurred by the dramatic social and developmental changes young people experience during this period and the consequences of their missteps. The family context, both the family of origin and family of procreation, has emerged as key settings shaping young adults’ success in navigating this period of the life course. While prior research has illuminated relationships between various family contexts and young adult outcomes, the chapters in this volume move the field forward in considering the dynamic interplay between family context, early adult development, and a range of outcomes. In this chapter, we synthesize four emergent themes from this volume : the role of family in pathways to adulthood, cumulative advantage and disadvantage in early adulthood, individual differences in young people’s skills and capacities for negotiating early adulthood, and the role of institutions in shaping early adulthood.
