Makes you think!
May 02 2006
So I got the new Relevant yesterday, this morning I read the article about Derek Webb, who I love, I feel like his songs are real and true.
They quoted a line from one of his songs, he played this song on a tour of colleges and people walked out after this verse:
There are two great lies that I've heard:
"The day you eat of the fruit of that tree, you will not surely die"
And that Jesus Christ was a white, middle-class Republican
And if you wanna be saved you have to learn to be like Him
I didn't find it offensive, I was partially excited to have some one finally say that, but I was also hit with the fact that two years ago I would have walked out. I thank god for growing me and for showing me that He does not fit into a mold and neither do his followers we all come in diffrent shapes, sizes, colors, and political beliefs. God made us unique and he puts people in front of us to challenge us and stretch us.
