Hearing a talented rapper talk about the need to fuse systematic theology and hip hop and train church leaders who have poor theology is just mind blowingly awesome. Lecrae discusses the difficulties in reach a hip hop culture so rooted in idolatry and sin. These are the kind of interviews that make me excited to be in the church. I posted video from Mars Hill Church a few weeks back showing Lecrae leading a song in the actual worship service which was amazing and powerful. I could tell from his lyrics he values scripture, doctrine and real hard truth and this interview is just tasty tasty icing. What a great interview, enjoy.

Yeah!!!!! Good one Kyle!!!! Lecrae talked about so much right there. I think that first of all there needs to be some serious boundaries on what is truly defined as hip hop culture. The Hip hop I enjoy is a sociecty of lyricists fusing melody and intelectual poetry. Unfortunately, this is not what MTV or the radio defines hip hop as. The “hip hop” that i see on tv or hear played all over the radio is not only what Lecrae says as broke people now having money to glorify sin, but also what PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR. I know it’s sad but true. That garbage sells and they flood the air waves very well with it.
As far as hip hop influenced corporate worship, I think is an amazing idea and now i have gears turning. hahaha! I LOVE IT. Excellent job on this one Kyle
Lacrae is just such a breath of fresh air in a hip hop culture that is just full of death and sin. I just pray that those that are idolizing the rappers in sin would start putting their worship where it’s due, to Jesus! Praise the Lord that he is in the midst the hip hop culture being the light! Is there any chance we can get him to Life Connection Church? That would be an amazing show and the Connection Building is such a great venue as we saw with the John Mark McMillan Concert!!
He’s on the top of my list for people to book at LCC for sure.
WE NEED TO BOOK LECRAE!!! WORK ON IT>>>LOL
