Hip hop Culture and the church

Published by Andre Daley at 10:28 am under diversity, faith & culture, music

Several years ago I sat in a worship gathering with Sally Morganthaler as someone from the Ionia Community lead the gathered body in some “worship songs of diversity” from Africa. At one point Morganthaler asked me where is the hip hop music? The Anglo church including some of my friends in the emerging church and emergent conversation have been slow to embrace hip hop’s place in the church.

Baker Bookhouse is sponsoring a Hip Hop Culture Forum on April 24th and bringing some important people to the table talk about this very issue.

The next night will feature a great line up of Christian hip hip artists including

Local George Moss ( who  will moderate the forum
T-Bone
Grits ( a favorite of my son and I)

and many more. This is something worth checking out
