That intro tho 🙌 I know John famously says he's not very smart but that was the smartest thing I've heard online in a while. #CooperStuff 👊
Let's see if Skillet follows through on John Cooper's words. It's one thing to be able to say a powerful sentence but when your own actions don't agree with what you say then it's worthless. Skillet's lyrics unfortunately don't contain the gospel and can be happily sung by and agreed to by an atheist.
Agreed!

Man, I remember years ago when I first heard Kirk Cameron was a "Christian" and I thought, yeah, sure. He's a fluffy, Hollywood Christian maybe but we'll see how real it is. It didn't take long and I saw him on 'Way of the Master', making great Christian themed movies, defending our Christian National heritage, standing up for Christian's to be able to read in Libraries (never thought that would even be disputed) and now he's become to me, one of the the main Godly driving forces in the fight. I have to say bro, cause I doubt Kirk has the time to read this, but you are doing an INCREDIBLE job and I'm proud of you. I want to do anything I can to help you fight the good fight. I love this interview with John who I also think is the real deal and it's an honor to see God using you guys and we need to all be in on the ministry God has given us all...that of reconciliation.
John is brilliant I absolutely love what he has to say! & I LOVE his podcast
Thanks for this interview, Kirk! John Cooper and Skillet are amazing! I adore this band, and this man’s right on. He’s so influential and such a Christian warrior.
You guys identify a really important tool in the spiritual battle that is occurring. Worship has been on my heart and mind for a few months, and I think the Lord has put it on my heard to use music to praise and worship him - in spirit also - as a weapon to combat evil. Not just to sing/play songs without deeper faith and trust. Christian music these days seem to focus on the performance or artist and does not disseminate the word of God or call people to repentance. It's all about "me", or whether the audience will like the groove.
A prayer SUNG is 7x as powerful 🎶Selah
Sorry Tom disagree with you christian music these days is amazing riley clemmons especially
@@timothydeary6748 IMHO most music lately is a bunch of schmaltzy, emotional dribble - and I can't get past the first 12 bars. Glad you like her music - if you find God being glorified in those songs go for it. Hope she reaches people.
@@tombeach1262 have you heard any of her music her music is not emotional dribble listen to her songs fighting for me and for the good her songs are not amotional dribble buddy do your homework and save yourself the embarrassment and sounding stupid
@@tombeach1262 why ain't you responding to me go do your homework and listen to riley clemmons music and save yourself from looking stupid
I love listening to John preach and share his faith in Christ...and his Bible knowledge...the man is SOLID on Biblical theology and the Christian faith...really glad I found him - thanks for sharing this interview with him !!
Two men of God that stand for righteousness during a time where right is wrong and wrong is right is prevalent. Keep on sharing and teaching His word.
I watched all the videos with John Cooper. Great stuff. Both you and John are making a very positive impact on the world. My take away was that I was VERY encouraged by your interviews with John. Good work. 1 Corinthians 15:58
Bizzle has been putting out this kinda content for years. But yes we do need more artist to start showing the good side of freedom from sin through the power of God.
Right.... and dress up like Satanists while we do it. 😳 This video was disgusting. I'm ashamed of Kirk.
AMEN! Great interview!
I don’t Understand why someone who seems to be so solid and pushing back against society would help fund something like TBN
Thank you for your amazing Faith I thank you but most of all I give all thanks to Jesus ❤️💯
Amen. The music today is simply not Christian music. The focus is on the beat and rhythm, which appeals to the flesh. Also, music is always a reflection of the condition of the church. The church (as in the organization), is in a major mess and in dire need of a reformation. The false prosperity gospel, and new-age spiritism has done much damage. Great video, and God bless.
A horrible video. Exactly what is wrong with today. This dude looks like a Satanist. I'm ashamed of Kirk for having this guy on and not telling him to repent.
You are on fire 🔥 Jon! I highly respect you for speaking the Truth in love, & I applaud you for being brave and courageous enough to talk about these salvation-impacting issues in the age of ‘cancel culture’. Thank you for shining your light in the darkness!!
This dude was darkness. He looked Satanic. I'm disgusted Kirk would support this. We're called to be separate from the world, not look like a witch, or devil worshiper.
We go to church then it's back to work and go home to an empty house. A dead lifestyle. We are separated from our brothers and sisters socially and can't connect to learn needed, basic, good social and bonding norms within the Christain Culture.
Church in the homes (Acts 4-6).
This is actually something that Demon Hunter covered in one of their songs. The song is called "Artificial Light".
I highly suggest checking out their lyric video for the song. It's here on RUclips.
Todays So Called Christian Music is Awful. It is unbiblical and flat out quenches my Spirit
This video shocked me that Kirk supported this dude that looks like a Satanist. Just wow...

Sorry Chris I STRONGLY DISAGREE
Based and so true.
It looked like Satan to me. I'm ashamed of Kirk today.
@@redfaux74 k. Worship music made by conglomerates definitely needs to be changed. He made a video about it…and you see Satan.
Amen!!!
Check out Keith Green music...
I don't see in scripture that music needs to be a our focus to impact our culture. This is a good start instead.
"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another."
John 13:34-35
By this shall all men know... The focus is to love fellow believers with agape love, as we see over and over again throughout the New Testament. I don't see a lot of that within the church as a whole.
Is Skillet going follow through on these words and change it's music subject now to call people to repent before a holy God? Or is this just a suggestion to other bands?
Sadly Skillet's music seems to pander mostly to a secular market acceptable to even atheists.
I believe they do Christian tours as well as secular. John has mentioned that he wants his band to be a light in the dark. He shared a story once about how one secular artist had lost a family member, Cooper’s daughter who was 5 at the time told the man that she was praying for him. I believe he wants to save the lost not condone what the lost does.

Ironically, many people have contributed to the "change to culture" over the centuries, by being their God given selves.
The Christian music industry(-it saddens me to say that -) thrives on artists who sound and may even look like the current pop music fad.
Sorry, but certain old hymns were written for a commission given to a hungry classical music composer back in the day, so we can't simply reminisce about the past.
But kids, when you get older, you'll "reminisce" about the apparent good old days, too, don't worry.
I cringe when I hear "Grammy and Dove Award winners", as if *their* music must be special..
It could somehow be better than yours, because they got a contract.
Sing your song, because you have an audience of One.
You don't look cool, you don't win awards.
You're just doing it for the Lord.
(Wait a minute..
I think that could be the bones of my next song there 🤔😁)
There are genuine Christian artists, and there are some charlatans.
This very theme is in our Bible.
Same as it ever was.
Amen
There are many believers who have never learned how to connect with the Holy Spirit. Acts 19:2 Paul with Johns disciples. Many are disconnected.
U guys look 👀 like 👍 howdy 🤠 duty interviewing Sid viscous
It's not even a sexual thing it a...you're being defiant thing. It's bc people have fallen into the prosperity, name it and claim it, gospel. Most christians do NOT know what the Bible even says or understand it.
Music as a weapon on both sides of spiritual warfare is the true message of the movies Purple Rain and Graffiti Bridge...that went over many people's heads.
When I heard 🎶You'll believe that God is a woman🎶 playing in St. Arbucks Church, I sang 🎶God is a MAN named JESUS🎶 OVER IT. Definitely a prophetic ministry. 🎤😆
YIKES! Hearing that song sung in that church didn't make you get up and leave? I would've, and I wouldn't have been back.
oh Christian music had it John, you know that. Whitecross, Barren Cross, Petra, they all were convicting back in the 80's. Now its all-Joel Osteen music, except skillet of course
Droves of people are leaving the church. But are their lives really "falling apart", more so than their lives would have fallen apart had they remained within the church?
Christians have this terrible habit of seeing themselves as better than the world such that the world needs saving and being brought up to their standard. The problem is:-
1. If you look at history and current affairs, Christian behaviour is, on average, little different to that of the rest of the world.
2. Various surveys show that in the context of well-being, non Christians often perform better than Christians.
3. Christians need to sort out exactly what is needed in order for a person to be saved, because they have, since the beginning of the faith, been arguing amongst each other over who really is the true Christian.
4. Christians who leave the church and leave the faith, often do so for really sensible reasons and those reasons often go so far as to the person finding a happier and healthier life away from the church and away from the faith.
Certainly, religion (Christianity in this case), can offer people a lot that is good. However, as so many who have left the church will testify, the faith can also be very damaging to people. Because of what the faith teaches believers, so many Christians appear completely and utterly blind to this fact.

Meh just let it die
Lets be honest. Music is a business. They will do what sells and they will beat that dead horse until the next horse comes along. They don't get famous without playing the game. Christian music doesn't evolve, it's become just like the Top 40's. And the lyrics are so plain and predictable. The old Gospel songs are great because they were not trying to sell them.
Yes.... this video disgusted me on a whole new level. I cannot believe Kirk supported this dude who looks like Satan. Wow..... very disappointing.
The whole religion is a business

Contemporary Christian music of the 80s and 90s was very John the Baptist-esque! In other words "preachy". Remember?? Anyone want to name the artists? I think people who have yet to hear the gospel need to...hear the gospel...that we CAN NOT add anything to what Jesus did for us all on the cross! The gospel is really simple. Salvation is a free GIFT and is really simple. Just spread that around like wild fire! YOU DONT HAVE TO DO THIS BE THAT FEEL THAT...just believe that Jesus saved us on the cross and paid the price of sin once! We can't add to that! That is FREEDOM! That's a great starting point.

John I’m gonna call you out on something. Why don’t you guys sing about Jesus? Your music doesn’t mention him.
This surprised me about Kirk. This looked absolutely Satanic.

Just sing scripture, straight up, can't shake the Rock.
