The ongoing battle partnership between Christ and cool

“I’m still trying to figure out how some of this music ‘points to Christ’ … It’s hot, it’s completely relevent and totally cool. Great production, the band is funfunfun. I’m sure all of these bands on the tour are devout in their faith. … But is ‘doing it the way they do’ what we’re commanded? Or are we trying to fit Jesus into our own image of cool? When we’re attaching ‘Christian’ to a genre of music, shouldn’t we be glorifying Christ?
Sigh. Forgive my cynicism. The question of ‘what is Christian music’ is always simmering just under the surface for me, and it bubbles up once in a while and makes me ask, ‘Is this Christian music,’ especially when I’m little cranky. It could be that my conversation with Jeremy Camp is still ringing in my ears.
Or maybe all of this Bible reading I’ve done in 2008 is starting to get to me.”
