Ahem....now kiddies, be nice. I’m far from being a 20-something; I’ll soon turn 56, and I’ve been slinging rock and blues guitar for over 40 years. The last 16 or so have been almost exclusively as lead guitarist in larger evangelical churches in the Raleigh, NC area. I play loud and proud, and I’m not ashamed to do it or say it.
If you don’t “get” it, that’s fine. That’s your choice. Contemporary Christian can be very, very powerful. I’ve seen it, lived it, experienced it, contributed to it for years so I know full well what I’m talking about.
The way I see it, we Christians have the most powerful message on earth, so it should be delivered POWERFULLY. I’m sick of wimpy, dewy-eyed mush that NO one listens to (not even Christians who think they have to say they like it) being passed off as “Christian”. I say plug in, crank it up to 11, and let ‘er rip. Let the Holy Spirit take over WHICH, by the way, He does.....and then let HIM do the rest.
It works.
Some minister with the flesh, some with the spirit. You are the problem.
