Confessions

Part 2 of the 1/2/2008 blog

I know. 2 new posts in one day is a rare occasion. But I want to get something off of my chest. Here goes...

I've been really hating on a very popular gospel artist lately. I won't mention the name, but you could probably guess if that's really important to you. Anyways, I haven't been saying nice things about a man who loves God and uses his music to reach a generation of people that may not see God otherwise. I've said things like he gets on my nerves and he's too old to be doing some of the dancing that he does on stage when he performs. I think I even said that I wish he would sit down.

But now I see the error of my ways. Just because you won't ever catch me doing the "soulda boy" to Jesus music on stage doesn't mean that I have any right to judge someone else. It's all about ministry and reaching the saved and unsaved through music.

Israel's ministry is different from Kirk Franklin's. Kirk's is different from Daryl Black's. Daryl's is different from mine. Just like we need all the forms of praise, each man/woman's ministry is important to the kingdom.

So...the conclusion of the matter is that Dionna will shut up now and stop hating on kingdom builders who are doing the work of God.
