It looks as if Toledo is ready for a hip-hop church, according to Bishop Stephen Ward, associate pastor of Northgate Community Church.

 

Last weekend, more than 400 people attended “Tha Remix,” a cutting-edge cross between a church service and a nightclub event held in the Genesis Dreamplex.

 

Bishop Ward, 29, preached between performances by gospel hip-hop artists including Mizz Reality, Souljaz 4 Christ, and the Mad Prophets, plus a set of Christian rock by Rossford band Pawn.

Hmmm.. I like hip-hop and I like church but for some reason the two just dont mix well in my opinion...Anyway I know a few who went to this and they seemed to have really enjoyed it.

I wonder what the Moral Majority thinks of this.
