He became a Christian when he was 15 years old. "When I was 19, I played in a "secular" band in my hometown of Sarnia, trying to be a musical evangelist. Aside from the scandal this caused in my (extremely) conservative church, I learned tons about being salt & light, and having meaningful friendships and conversations with people who didn't believe the same as I did. I also continued to sort out my thinking on what it meant to be "in the world but not of the world", and (on a different level) what it meant to be a "Christian" musician -- another source of controversy which once was the cause of my being literally, physically thrown out of a church in Winnipeg." "Being involved with the Vineyard movement in the 90's was a little like voluntarily requesting a "resume stain" that would preclude you from being taken seriously by most other denominations. Like they say, "Vineyard isn't something you join, it's something you discover you are." We loved the freedom in worship and vision for making church a "safe place" for those who were not yet followers of Jesus." Source: http://www.robbymac.org/journey.html This article is a stub.
