The Angry Rap Artist Within

Some of our pastoral staff spent the afternoon working on a little rap. That's the way we roll at NCC. We've got some lyrisologists on our staff.

We're laying the soundtrack today. We'll shoot the video next week. And we'll unveil it at our Volunteer Appreciation Dinner next Friday. Not sure if it'll help or hurt volunteer recruitment at NCC. But this is one reason I love NCC. We work hard. But we also have fun! We definitely got in touch with the angry rap artist within!

For the record, I also prayed and read my Bible today!

Hi Pastor Mark,

Have you heard of a rather controversial new book called "Pagan Christianity" by Frank Viola and George Barna? I'd be interested in hearing your review or thoughts.

Mark-
You've got to publish that video on your blog! The blog readers need a glimpse of that "angry rap artist within!" Keep up the great work!

Mark, I am a youth pastor at a church plant. I find your writings to be encouraging during this amazing process. Our church did a rap video about giving to missions. You should check it out. Its on youtube under "shake yer buddy barrel". I also went to school with Missy. Her and my wife are great friends. Tell them we said hi!!!!
