Leave Rap To The Experts Saddos!!
Just to prove that (c)rapness knows no cultural bounds! [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnT22QImDLY] OK…this has been a ‘stop doing rap if it’s not your gig’ week. Indeed, what is worse is when churches think they’re cool by doing it as some sort of marketing tool to reach non Christians. They just think you’re tragic and very,…

He is coming in his capacity as the new director of A29 Western Europe and I am really looking forward to it. He has got lots of great things to say and to teach us about how to be better planters in whichever context we find ourselves. Take a look…
