We are Jesus followers that meet the hip-hop community where they are, to shine the light of God’s transformative love and truth, moving non-believers to become disciples and disciples to become disciple-makers.
Some of the things we do to help you achieve those. Contact us for more details.
And our online hip-hop church services (on the 3rd Sunday of each month). Here’s an example:
what others are saying
what’s so dope about jesus?
God created the world good and wanted people to live in certain ways. Then people disrespected God and were like, “nah, we got this” and started living their own ways. But doing that had the natural consequences of death and disease and overall bad things happening. Now, if God had let that play out, it would have been fair. But cuz God loved his creation, especially people, he decided to forgive. He did this through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. For those that believe, they are forgiven and start to follow God’s ways, the ways he wanted people to live from jump. Those ways are good, right and have beneficial things happening, not the least of which is a relationship with God, the one who loves, is sovereign, and good.
God, out of his grace, sent his son, who never sinned and taught the right ways of God, and then died (murdered, really). In that, he took the consequences that we all should get for our sins. He rose again from the dead (cuz not even death could hold him), and then ascended to Heaven, and will one day return. Do you have sins that need to be confessed to him and be forgiven for? Do you have to stop living life your own ways and start following God’s ways through Jesus? (That doesn’t mean giving up being hip-hop either.) Do you want to be free of sinful living (and heart), get right with God, and have a new life in Jesus?
Think about it. If you have good Christians in your life, talk to them about it. Talk with God about it in prayer. Read or listen to the Bible about it all. And if you have any questions or want to follow Jesus, let us know. We’ll be glad to help.
