"I went to Church but it was destroying me because the people yelled and screamed from the pulpit and at a Sunday School they baby-talked me.... I walked out of the church when I was nine years old. I didn't like the hymns and couldn't stand the singing any more.... I lived outside the Church and was kinda' on my own but I'm glad Jesus came to me then and pulled me out of what might have been an unhappy childhood."

Silence the OppressorsTo the following Christians listen closely.We bring our light to a new realm, a realm you dare not enter, Passing judgment behind stone walls, behind your absence of understanding.We will crush your walls that dictate where our ministry goes, Don't you ever tell me I'm using God as a gimmick.I'm not a heretic, I'm not a hypocrite; Those insults make me sick from the ones I have fellowship with.We aren't doing this for our own, but for one name holy and alone.These venues are our church, We are the gospel in the darkness, and this is our exaltation.We are the gospel in the darkness; we bring our light to a new realm, A realm you dare not enter, passing judgment behind stone walls, Behind your absence of understanding.Are you listening!!! We'll crush the walls that dictate where our ministry goes, This is our church, this is our worship, GORSHIP!
