From Lamp Mode recordings:
Our new project. “The Church”, is set to be released June 8th, 2010.
We understand both the seemingly controversial nature of “the Church”, especially among the Hip hop contingent, and well as the biblical imperative of the Church’s importance. We are simply offering our contribution to the conversation, fueled and on the diving board of 9Marks’ book, “What is a healthy church”, written by Mark Dever.
9Marks is an organization that helps pastors think more biblically about the church through emphasizing key values that the bible ascribes to a healthy church. They do this through providing a variety of resources, most notably for the book previously listed, on which this album is primarily based. And surely a more biblical understanding of “What is a healthy church”, isn’t just needed for the pastors, but also for every believer.
So along with the Lamp Mode family, we teamed up with Trip Lee, Tedashii, Flame, Evangel, and more, to bring the contents of “What is a healthy church” to the hip-hop community. This is our attempt at communicating that valuable information to and through, the hip-hop culture, so that we can accurately see our place in, “The Church”.
Yours to download from iTunes or Lamp Modes own site. As they say in the classics ‘do yourself a favour.’
Here’s Shai Linne’s track ‘Expository Preaching’ from the album. Don’t expect to hear this one at Hillsong next week.
