Reformed Rappers (Theologically speaking that is...)

So I like to check out the Resurgence website: http://theresurgence.com/, from time to time. They have a lot of amazing resources if you're interested in what's going on in the Reformed church in America. It's headed by the Pastor Mark Driscoll (one of my favorites), and he is really doing an amazing job with this site. It's very technologically savy, with lots of multi-media options. And he often does interviews with speakers of events that he has. They include guys like John Piper, Matt Chandler, and Eric Mason. And I just watched an awesome interview with a guy named "Lecrae." He's a theologically reformed Christian rapper, and it was one of the coolest and most inspiring interviews I've heard in a while. Lecrae and many others in his circle are basically being urban missionaries right now, mainly through the medium of rap, and mainly targeted at today's hip-hop culture. The homepage that I linked earlier at the top has about 10 videos featured on it. If you scroll through the videos, one of them will be titled; "Mark Driscoll and Lecrae." Check it out. It's really awesome what these guys are doing.

I'm also putting two videos up here. One of is a music video for a song that Lecrae did called "Prayin' for you," and the other one is by another Christian rapper named "The Ambassador." He's a friend of Lecrae, and they collaborate a lot as well. In the second video, "the Ambassador" is promoting his new album "the chop chop: from Milk to Meat", which is taken from Hebrews chapter 6. Listening to the way he promotes his new album is just so refreshing and encouraging to hear how centered his ministry and art is in Christ. It's really exciting to see what these guys are doing.

Here's the two videos:
