Jon Foreman, Founder/Lead Singer/ Songwriter of Switchfoot
Worship Style - "Alternative"
Six cokes - $24.00; parking - $28.00; watching several hundred young adults "worshiping God" at a nightclub - PRICELESS!
Saturday night, we had the unusual experience of attending a rock concert with our kids and some of their friends. The band Switchfoot was performing. It would be a disservice to label them a Christian band, as Foreman says, "None of these songs has been born again, and to that end there is no such thing as Christian music. No. Christ didn’t come and die for my songs, he came for me." (For further info check out, www.ctkblog.com/2013/12/05/why-switchfoot-wont-sing-christian-songs/)
So, although this concert might not be labeled a Christian concert, there was a great deal of worshiping going on. Jesus was so there and was having a blast! Take a moment to watch the video of Foreman "preaching" from on top of the bar. (http://youtu.be/jLav5ft--9U) We believe that the presence of these Christian men brought the light of Jesus and the presence of the Holy Spirit into a most unusual place. Found Jesus right where He should be!
