WINTER JAM 2008 WORTH WAIT!

Winter Jam had some great acts this year and proved itself worth the two hour wait to get in. 'So long Self' by Mercy Me and 'Rebirthing' by Skillet alone would have been worth the price of admission. I think one of the neatest differences between a Christian rock concert and a secular rock concert is that Christian bands will actually come out and talk to you in the crowd when they are not performing. Mercy Me did that to the delight of many. That was cool.

“…the Christian must not act in exactly the same way as everyone else. He has a part to play in this world which no one else can possibly fulfill. He is not asked to look at the various movements which men have started, choose those which seem ‘good,’ and then support them. He is not asked to give his blessing to any particular human enterprise, nor to support the decisions of man.” - Jacques Ellul, theologian "The Presence of the Kingdom"
