DC Talk Documentary - That Time Christian Music Crossed Over

[@ChildishDfollowsGod]

I still to this day listen to DC Talk. Welcome to the Freak Show was incredible!

[@libbysukiyaki]

Love this so much. Where are all the Gen X Christians now? Lord bring revival.

[@Z.dg56.sfg46.axjp9.zz.yinm.]

Most of us are atheist now lol. Good times though.

[@emilylee1286]

[@user-xo9ze9sm6k]

Thank you for saying yes to God.

My daughter was saved at a Billy Graham youth crusade. It was an amazing time.

[@xyzxyzxyz8978]

Thank you Lord for these three young men who had the gauntlet to show the Christian community that diversity in Christian music does work . It’s not who is the leader it’s Jesus being the leader and the three following Jesus footsteps to serve one another that’s called love serving one another .

DC Talk had quite a real and healthy relationship and ministry we all can learn something from.

[@shawnd7742]

Amen

[@iamruly7594]

Thank you, DC Talk, for your defiance against the mainstream music towards Jesus filled lyrics!! I love you guys!! Jesus Freak for life!!

[@setlikeafreebird]

I just love DC talk, I didn’t know they have been around so long! One day I called myself introducing there music to my grandson who said “grandma I already listen to them” 😂😂😂

[@christinep5524]

Was so fun to watch this and reminisce about the nineties!

[@lize8714]

This thing that Toby invented about the rapp & then the melodic chorus - love it! That "little" back & forth, dip in & out - perfect. Ha, & esp. since the lyrics are Christian, I don't have to worry whether I'm catching all the words or not, it's the Lord's & I can only be blessed!

[@brendongeorge73]

R funny 😂

[@SpooksMcGhie]

😂😂😂If you think he invented that you don't know anything about rap music lol😂😂😂😂😂

[@benjamindean7536]

Honesty it saddens me that Kevin Max did not speak on this documentary. K. Max is every bit as important to the story as Toby and Michael yet he is not included. I love the band and l am greatful to God for their influence apon the world and apon me.

[@rondawatterson7872]

He renounced Jesus Christ very sad

[@benjamindean7536]

@@rondawatterson7872 l have never seen any evidence to support what U say, that he "renounced Christ". I have however seen evidence to support that K Max is a bit mixed up about the fact that Jesus is "against wealth" and pro homosexualality. Jesus was against LGBT by default because scripture is. Jesus loved all people in particular sinners that would include LGBT people. I feel that many people have overreacted to K Max statements and labelled him a non Christian. Surly he still believes in the Gospel and really just needs some grace to right his thinking about what Jesus actually represented.

[@BryantCarter]

It felt good to watch this again. They got me through so much and still do. The music is still fresh and the message still hits you.

[@KellyK387]

Mikes vocals on In the Light are so good. I’m fact, when I met him I told him so I’m person. Some of the greatest vocals in Christian music ever.

[@hollikrebs]

Amazing! Their awesome, thank you so much Lord for this talent that spoke you and broadcasted you. Glory to you Lord.

Get ready my Brothers and Sisters! Carman and Rich Mullins will be soon riding back with Jesus! 😇

[@lize8714]

ha, ha and the lyrics being hard hitting - ah yes! so tired of the soft pedal. Thank you SO MUCH for not toning it down. Lovin' God hard core - yes!

[@lancesherman8673]

I am so glad they got together. They are the perfect couple.

[@Memerroni]

The fact Michael wasn't Picked for a Biggger offer and Instead was left with his Friends, that there feels like A Plan Made by God.

This is awesome especially even in today's messed up society's, diversity is everywhere, it's a poor excuse a bad stigma, as it's been said we all bleed the same I'm a people lover above all idc what or where you came from, just stop labeling, learn to love like Jesus. God bless you all!!

[@LucasPenido]

Not one testimony/word from the greatest voice to ever walk on planet earth: Mr Kevin Max?! And yes bro, I know its not your fault...but still, that’d be nice!

[@helenacummings2745]

I use to Listen to DC Talk on Z88.3 years ago in Orlando Fl. I did not even know until this day Toby Mac was In DC Talk wow

[@elremanenteunafeinteligente]

Trying to think how the Gaither Vocal Band would have been if Mark Lowry had never been recruited and utimately have been the longest tenured member. Also and more important to this video: WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN OF DCTALK IF MICHAEL TAIT HAD BEEN SIGNED TO GVB!

[@bd8033]

Wasn't Mark Lowery a comedian?

[@micheleh5269]

Lowry is a comedian and musician. He can sing and play piano but people remember his comedy. He lightened up Gaithers. He was a great fit. He did the funniest parody "My Face in the World" from Michael W Smith "Place in this World"

[@damianedwards8827]

Michael met Toby and Toby was rockin the Michael Jackson zipper jacket

[@justingroff3682]

Thank you Travis for this documentary I especially loved the 32:00 in part about N word racism I never heard that Toby Mac interview and that is why Colored People is my favorite song of theirs and the first concert I ever attended at 15 with Bel Air Church of the Nazarene all us teens and our youth pastor drove 3 hours to Fredericksburg VA for the Freak Show tour w Bloom Audio Adrenaline opener and I vividly recall AA being almost TOO LOUD and I frankly at the time did not like it but I also did not know Bloom yet it in retrospect was also good but I say Jesus Freak was my first show NOT Bloom even though both are accurate I am now a Phish fan for life but I also love Christian music Caedmon's Call is my favorite Christian band and it is sad that Kevin Max w the universal Christ statement confuses me and Derek Webb one of my former idols and lyrically perhaps the Bob Dylan of CCM is now a "professed" atheist but I still have hope in his falling away revival cuz i do not believe in Calvinism Augustine lies or TULIP they are lies from Satan devised to divide churches based on false doctrines and dogma but that is neither here nor there. . .Thanks Adkins for this awesome short 5 album Documentary

proof??

[@chosenone8408]

@@timjthru I’ll try to be as blunt as humanly possible. Here’s a link that isn’t comprehensive but instead will give you a good idea on the symbolism choices of Toby Mac’s newest album titled “Eye On It.” Source--newjerusalemchronicle.blogspot.com/2011/05/toby-mac-and-third-day-more-examples-of.html Food for thought-Remember that in all occultism (more precisely Luciferian doctrine), the use of one eye (preferably the left), is always used and the purpose for using one eye is to represent Lucifer himself, “the all seeing eye.” Second major point, Toby Mac’s newest song “Ill M I” doesn’t leave much to the imagination as to what he’s referring to. Still confused? Here, I’ll show you… Ill-u-M-I-nati. It’s sad but true that some Christian artists and bands have been compromised. Always look out for “eye” symbolism, the use of the word “you” in exchange for Christ, new age sounding jargon, “diversity” (which is anti-white propaganda), singers mentioning Jesus not being the only way, proclaiming that we’re not actually sinners (which we are), Jesus is a great idea but not the actual son of God, just to name a few. Keep a close eye on any goat heads, horns, any music video containing anything with long finger nails or demonically inspired actions, deep symbology with red & white or black & white color palates, and so on.
