Food For Thought

The rock band Switchfoot is playing in Dallas tonight and there was the typical interview in the weekend promo magazine "Guide" which lets everybody know what's going on in Big D. But there was a quote by Switchfoot's singer/songwriter Jon Foreman that I thought was interesting. He was responding the to the interviewer's question about why the band steadfastly refused to be referred to as a "Christian band":

"As a believer and a musician, I think a lot about how the arts interface with culture. And, if we adopt this segregation of thoughts--'This is sacred, and that is secular'--it will force us to live dishonestly."

Wow.

And I'm not even a fan of Switchfoot.
