Christianity Today Reviews Lu
Christianity Today Reviews Lu: The Na Band, fronted by Devon Kauflin who leads worship at our church, had its album reviewed by CT. The reviewer states that the album is "far from your typical corporate praise album, Looked Upon and its indie-styled hymnody are best suited for times of prayer and personal devotions." He also says it has a shoe-gazer quality throughout, but we won't draw attention to that.

Pilgrim's Progress Musical: Pilgrim is a modern musical adaptation of John Bunyan's classic work, Pilgrim's Progress. It was performed in spring 2009 by the high school students at my church. They did a great job. The script is by theatre professionals (and members of our church) Janice Mays and Cathy Mays. The music is by various artists, including Bob Kauflin, Zach Jones and Mark Altrogge. You can order a DVD of the production here.
Give Me An Answer Highschool Conference: I'm looking forward to joining Al Mohler, Russell Moore, Shane & Shane and hip-hop artist Flame at the SBTS conference for highschool students next spring. Details.
Stephen Altrogge Reviews Dug Down Deep: Over at the Blazing Center blog they've posted a very generous review of the book. Read it.

When I first read the interview, I agreed with pretty much everything that was said... And then I got to that shoe-gazer line and thought, 'does this reviewer have any idea what shoe-gaze even is?' There are things Lu (and the NA Band) is; shoe-gaze would not be one of them. :-P

I'm hoping they listened to the music with more attention to detail than they displayed researching Sovereign Grace Ministries.
To call Bob Kauflin the founder of Sovereign Grace Ministries is . . . inaccurate.
Hey, Christianity Astray, you could have "looked upon" the internet to find that out.
Honestly, I might be overly-agitated in defending my LU peeps and their wonderful album.
