Foundational Pillars

The Prophetic Gospel of Christ

We center the voices of people who have been shaped by life on the margins (i.e., “the least of these”) by making their plight and predicament fundamental to, and a central focus of, the gospel.

A Critical Theory on Race

We recognize the saliency of race in society and advance the proposition that racism is inextricably linked and woven into the everyday fabric of social life.

Critical Hip-Hop Theory

We understand hip-hop as a legitimate cultural art form that reflects the lived experiences, lived realities, and cultural sensibilities of those who have been shaped by life on the margins in inner city urban America.

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
