We are Christian by faith, not by genre."
-Jon Foreman
from the man himself, there you go.
they are Christians, but not a Christian band. they make music for everyone, though they can be influenced by Christ.

I completely agree with you mmarko9. Their music is definitely influenced by their beliefs, but it does not make it christian music just by that. This one says that he wants to fight for more than just money and we are too focused on material things, and that's definitely something that we can all relate to.

well yeah thats true, but you're missing the point.
im simply saying that it's unfair to refer to them as a "christian band."
they've said countless times in interviews that for them christianity is a "faith, not a genre."
sure their work is influenced by christ. sure they are christians. but its unfair to refer to them as a christian band because they make music for everyone, music that almost anyone can relate to and enjoy.

ahah, they all part their hair the same way..

incorrect.
they have music that would be completely different if they werent christians.
their music doesnt shove their beliefs down your throught.
but christ is present in their work.
just look throughout their entire body of work.
mmarko9 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
false.
they arent a christian band.
rather, christians in a band. there's a huge difference.
they write music for everyone, not just christians. |
