    Reformed Rap comes of Age: Shai Linne on The Hypostatic Union

    January 28, 2013 / Randal / The Tentative Apologist / 2 Comments

    I am not a big fan of rap, hip hop, or any combination thereof. But I’ve long respected the work of Shai Linne. This brother backs more theology into a four minute rap song than most evangelical pastors fit into a four week sermon series. His latest single, called “The Hypostatic Union,” includes clever and theologically loaded lyrics like the following:

    By faith we believe this amazing Jesus

    who made Uranus and Venus became a fetus

    is such a seed that few if anybody knew it

    months later he’s covered in amniotic fluid

    the subject of the gospels, praise of the apostles

    armed with eye sockets, arm pits and nostrils
