I'm on the Road to Damascus

About Me


PLEASE TAKE 5 MINUTES AND READ
And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? Romans 10:14-15
The message in my music is clear and deliberate, to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to a generation who hasn't heard the good news. Our generation, especially the hip-hop generation has heard of Jesus, but hasn't truly heard the good news of salvation and true life through Christ.
I have answered that call of Romans 10 by saying, "SEND ME LORD." For how will the truth be known, and how will our youth realize the truth of Christ unless someone tells them.
You don't have to look far into hip-hop culture to see a Godlessness that is causing a generation who is cold and burdened with pain to turn to a life of sin and self destruction. Lifestyles filled with lust, substance abuse, and material gain is what radio pumps into our generations head before they are old enough to realize that there is an alternative option.
God created us, he sculped our mind and body before we were even in womb and gave us a purpose and mission to serve Him. Christ has provided us with hope and truth but a fallen and sinful world have traded those truth's for lies. Our culture trades church for the club, trades the living water for a bottle of alcohol, and the joy of knowing Christ for a temporary high from a chemical.
My music sends a message of love to a world who has turned their back on Christ. I speak a relevent message of a relationship with the God of the Universe...not a man made religion. The walk with Christ is an exciting one, and ask anyone who lived a sinful lifestyle and now lives by faith in Christ...that way, and those things leave us empty but Christ fills us up more than any pleasure or temporary escape ever could.
Who else can bring hope to the hopeless but the creator of the universe, who else but the God who nailed our sins to the cross that glorious day! Who else can take us from a life of pain and confusion to a life of joy and unconditional love. God has written each of us a 66 book long love story and I have been called to put that love story in rap from. Our culture needs it...and you need it!
