Purpose

I desire to Explore and Express in summary statements some of the themes I find in the Lyrics of Bob Dylan's poetic songs. I hope someday to include a comprehensive Index of Topics and a Thematic Index of Theological Ideas expressed in his writings.

I do not want to detract from or destroy in any way his works of art. But, I desire to give them careful thought in order to gain greater understanding and appreciation of his expression of ideas, many of which I already hold as personal convictions.

I hope to help others see the beauty and power of his lyrics and the power expressed in his vocal arrangements. Through his giftedness, I believe, people who actually listen are being moved toward a life that is more heart felt and expressive; and that captures the experiences we face in the community of humanity to create a more enriching and fulfilling future life together.
