The Cultural Soul Project is a new church in Portland, Oregon where our ministry exists at the intersection of race, faith, hip-hop, and justice.

Through the lens of the the African-American experience, we are an urban ministry dedicated to addressing the needs of People who have been shaped by life on the margins.

FOUNDER

"I envision a society where People of Color in inner-city urban America can live lives of meaning, being, and purpose."

Dr. Daymond Glenn
Founder and Senior Pastor

WHY THIS CHURCH MATTERS

“In an era of church anxiety, we need a space where People of Color can breathe, learn, and engage. I have asserted for many years now that a Hip-Hop theology offers that space. Dr. Glenn has created just that. Hip-Hop culture provides deep spiritual roots, and it’s high time we move into a relevant and culturally appropriate Christianity.”

Dr. Daniel White Hodge
Professor of Intercultural Communication at North Park University
