The Joystrings were one of the first Christian pop groups to appear on television, in Salvation Army uniform, playing Christian beat music. By borrowing the conventions of popular music, the antithesis of this stereotype, the Church restated the claims of the Bible through Christian lyrics, and thus sent the message that Christianity was not outdated or irrelevant.
