Yesterday, Kanye West’s latest album Yeezus dropped with the third track titled, “I Am A God (Feat. God).” The song has already sparked reaction and has been likened to John Lennon’s remarks about the Beatles’ being “more popular than Jesus.” But maybe Kanye’s song is something we identify with more than we’d like to admit? There are times when our culture p […]
If God is real, and if the Bible is “God’s word,” there’s a lot at stake when it comes to its reliability. So is the Bible riddled with errors or is it a reliable revelation of God? I’m a nervous flyer. Airplanes just freak me out. But fly I must from time to time, and so I place my trust in a hunk of brilliantly engineered metal, several computers, and pilo […]
Recently, we started rolling out themed content on the blog and just wrapped up our first, Becoming a Better Leader. The big idea with this series was to look at different leadership questions and perspectives from a biblical worldview. We really enjoyed providing this material, working with some familiar names, and introducing some new ones, like Guy Mason, […]
Is Scripture divine or human? Authoritative? Is Scripture inspired by God? How should it be used? What is Scripture? All religious traditions that ground themselves in texts must grapple with certain questions. In worship services and public and private readings, Christians often turn to Scripture for guidance: to the stories of Abraham or Moses, to the Psal […]
. . . from the heart of a grateful son. I don’t want to be a good dad—I want to be a great dad. But the longer I live and more ministry I do, the more I have come to realize there are precious few examples of grace in action when it comes to fatherhood. So on this Father’s Day, I wanted to take a moment, heed Paul’s exhortation (Eph. 6:1), and honor my own f […]
Around every corner is the lure to consume. A desire to be satisfied. Unfortunately no human being has found anything under the sun that brings satisfaction. So we consume more, and more, and more. Eventually, we overdose. However, there is hope–if Christianity is our Rehab. In Jesus, satisfaction can be found.
Grace, love, peace and hope can be found…and there is always more. Consume more of Jesus. Overdose.

I just received Trip Lee’s new album “Between Two Worlds” and offer some thoughts. First of all, Trip Lee is one of my favorite lyricists in the hip hop realm and he matches that with his unique delivery of smooth flowing rhymes that come off as if he is not even trying. Anyhow, here is a recap on some of the tracks from the album:
No Worries- Southern beats, smooth lyrics
Covenant Eyes feat. Pro – This song is about what we set our eyes on. Mentions the deadly effects of lust and how we need to make a covenant not to lust after others. Pro balances Trip Lee’s smooth delivery with a strong rugged sound.
Life 100 w/ Chris Lee – a nice R&B beat with hooks from Chris Lee
Yours to Own w/ Jimmy Needham – a nice Jazzy tune with guitar and piano
Bear with You w/ Tedashii – some of my favorite beats, features a futuristic robotic sound. Tedashii offers a high energy passionate sound to complement the smooth Trip Lee
My favorite song!!! “The Invasion (Hero) ft Jai” – well, you will just need to listen to it yourself. Jai’s hooks sound a lot like Alicia Keys, but better. Actually, I included a youtube clip at the end of this post. Here are the lyrics:
Creation’s groaning, lost their hope and feel they always closed in Lots to cope with, on the ropes, wish they was in the open This broken world is so dim, our souls are searching, groping For one with hope to hold us close, and set goodness in motion I remember growing up in Dallas, I thought me and my close kin Was more than straight, our folks was great ,not broke that paper flowed in Not boasting man, just saying in my brain I didn’t know then That all went wrong, and it just can’t go right like a broke pen My mind was blind and cloaked in, but then that foolishness departed I saw this thing’s an ocean, and we just tryna swim real far but But can’t nobody float when we ain’t got boats or no fins We need a hero to go in, cause our solutions don’t win Education can’t fix it, more dough just leads to more sin Medicine is temporary, government seems so thin With all these weighty problems, that ain’t shrinking they just growing Who’s adequate to save us, how about He knew no sin?
Hook:
Like a G5 yeah you rushed to rescue me Took a cross in exchange for a throne to save me You began the work and I know you’ll finish And make all things right when you come back Cause you’re my hero, you already saved the day Cause you’re my hero, and I know you’re coming back for me
Verse 2:
Follow the steps bro, Adam sinned now we all dead so We gotta sentence on our head like death row, everything is wrecked All creation is a mess bro, In the fullness of time, in steps the hero no red cloak, He’s Jesus No flashing lights, glitz n glam, and no cameras He came to serve needy folks, and point them to the answer You see Him healing, feeding folks, and telling them the standard Our most basic need is to be ransomed by Jesus It has first place, yeah we separated in the worst ways Even physically peep how the earth quakes Separated socially, murder and the worst rapes Even separated from ourselves, we in the worst state It’s so major, that’s the reason that we need a Savior Cause the root of needs is separation from Creator Jesus came humbly to restore us to our maker And later He’ll restore all that He made bruh, He’s Jesus
Verse 3:
God is not pleased man, it’s clear that His standards missed The world is running rampant with, sin it’s an abandonment Man is feeling stranded, feeling hopeless since his banishment God is angry at the distortion and the mismanagement Evil is at work, but don’t be thinking He can’t handle it He promised He would do away with all of it, dismantle it He’s put up with this damage in His world, but He’s promised us That He’ll destroy all His enemies and then He’ll walk with us New Heaven, new Earth that’s where all His sheep dwell Cause Jesus succeeded in every part of life that we failed Died the death we couldn’t die, paid our price with 3 nails Began the work He promised, in the end we all will be well Already beat our enemies and when His Kingdom’s realized All those who oppose Him will see Jesus with some real eyes Deliverance is offered us, the hero He is urging us Salvation is exclusive to His people who have turned to trust.
(Jai): I give my gratitude (Jesus), you died to make all things new yeah, my knight in armor when our world is falling, your love never failing.

Entermission the debut album from DJ Official available in stores now!.
After producing for over 10 years and serving as traveling deejay, Official finally has the opportunity to reveal the dynamic of his skill-set on one project. The album is purposed to influence Christians to think about the Great Commission (Matt 28:19) and the Great Commandment (Luke 10:27) on a local level. As Christians we have a personal mission field, which consist of those that God has placed in our sphere of influence. With a missional mindset we can affect the people around us with the Gospel message by the way we live and conduct ourselves in our everyday walk. This is a message that needs to be heard and with everything from Reggae, Downsouth, East Coast, Commercial, Underground, Electro, and Rock/Hipster featured on the album there is something for everyone!
EnterMission features over 20 artists such as Lecrae, Flame, Sho Baraka, JR, Tedashii, Trip Lee, R-Swift, Thi’sl, Jahaziel, and more! Every single track on EnterMission is produced by DJ Official.
I had Caution come out to perform for the “Refuge” youth group at Second Reformed Church in Marion, NY when I was an assistant pastor over there. Anyhow, Caution repped Christ, was ministry-minded, and is a God-saturated lyricist. Check him out.
Caution’s 2nd Project. This album can best be described as diverse musically. It’s Hip Hop expressed through Rock, Worship, Funk, powerful story telling, a capella’s, R&B and more.

I lived in upstate NY for a few years and had the privilege of meeting a bunch of brothers who rep Christ in their rhymes. This is one such brother that I enjoy listening to. Check him out!!!
Exactly what the album states, it is a compilation of random thoughts from Deadmanwalking. He deals with such varied subjects that range from dying to oneself, dealing with relationships, the importance of biblical basics, and just plain having fun. This project should encourage you, humble you, refresh you, and, hopefully, make you laugh.
