Dr. Parsons combines musicology and liturgical theology to explore the various dimensions of music as a theologically saturated artistic practice. He especially enjoys teaching in the seminary context where the study of music can draw together cultural experience, the practice of ministry, and theological reflection. His recent publications include numerous articles on the role of music in theology and the life of the church. Dr. Parsons is an experienced church musician, having served as a music director in Disciples of Christ and Methodist churches for over 10 years.
