Shai Linne: Atonement Q&A

Who woulda thought that a catechism could be rapped? This is great stuff from Shai Linne:

The things shai linne is doing to bring the gospel to the unchurched is amazing! Who says Reformed rap isn't valuable and God glorifying? The Lord is working! Thanks for sharing.

I recommend checking out all of his albums. The Solus Christos Project, The Atonement and Storiez. All solid!

Linne's real good. I like The Ambassador as well but Linne is my favorite right now.

he sounds like the world and clearly is trying to cater to the flesh...

I love Shai.

I first heard of him after getting the 13 Letters album, that has him and some friends on it. I had seen it recommended on Reformed sites. Great stuff.. and I was never into Rap. Didn't care for it at all. I think it's great what they're doing.

What does the world sound like? It sounds like "Money, Sex, power..."

None of that in Shai's music (except denouncing it).

The flesh and the world does not have a "beat". Christian rap does not sound any more like "the world" than 'Amazing Grace'. See, when 'Amazing Grace' was written, IT sounded like other contemporary music too.

"Style" does not determine worldliness. Content does.

I think Andrew was just being sarcastic, imitating the excuses often heard from those who claim that just because rap is rap, it cannot glorify God.

But yes, I agree with all you've said.

Here's a worth-listening-to Way of the Master (Todd Friel) radio piece on shai linne's 'Atonement Q&A'...


"Oooh! It... they're... they're... they sound like they're... Calvinists?! This is just shocking from beginning to end."

Did you know? Charles Wesley was fond of appropriating drinking songs for his hymns. Take that! :P
