    Feeding Evangelical Insularity

    My main problem with Christian rock is that a lot of it seems to feed the sense of insularity in conservative Christian circles. I think the examples of Amy Grant, Jars of Clay or P.O.D. are instructive--all of them were adored by Christian music fans until they found mainstream success. Then they were accused of "selling out."

    When it comes to pop culture, I'm a firm believer that God is you find him.
