Abstract

In this article, we consider some aspects of Gospel Music, locating Verbo da Vida Church as the empirical field in which we observe its dynamics and analyze the “praise ministers” situation at the referred church, discussing those aspects related to their corporeality. Among the aspects we focus on in this work, we highlight gospel music and the increase in the consumption of such music in the religious sphere where that musical style is built as entertainment. Also, we focus on the corporeal dynamics during the moments of “praise and worship.” The research was done using direct observation during events and church services and through unstructured and semi-structured interviews.
