At the time it was his first album after becoming an born-again Christian and this is reflected on this and many other albums he released in The '80s. Musically he shifted more towards Christian Rock and Gospel Music and his lyrics dealt more with his faith in God. While Dylan did reach a new audience among religious people, it did alienate a lot of his older fans, especially considering Dylan wrote far more critical songs about religion earlier in his career, notably "With God On Our Side" from The Times They Are A-Changin'.Commercially the album did well. "Gotta Serve Somebody" was his first huge hit in three years and won him his first Grammy Award ("Best Rock Vocal"). Critical reactions were more mixed, though with the passing of time and especially regarding Dylan's entire career it's nowadays Vindicated by History as one of his better albums (or at the least superior to his other two Christian albums).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Adam and Eve Plot and Animal Motifs: "Man Gave Names To All The Animals", based on Adam naming all the animals in the Garden of Eden. It's rather childlike in nature and has often been called one of Dylan's worst songs in terms of lyrics.

Author Avatar: The general message of this album is pretty much summed up in "When You Gonna Wake Up?"

Apocalypse How: Well, a good solid helping of the Book of Revelation, at least as seen by certain evangelical circles.
