A fashion accessory. An occasional song. A popular tattoo. In the Hip-Hop culture, Jesus Christ is often reduced to a cultural icon. But Hes so much more. While millions of people worldwide identify themselves as part of this culture, far too few know much about the cross that is inked onto their shoulders or the Jesus who adorns their necklaces. Aimed specifically at the Hip Hopinfluenced generation, Youre Grounded is a reliable, insightful book about the person of Jesus Christ and the Christian life. Written in an easy-to-read fashion, each chapter starts with a story from urban cultureusing figures and examples familiar to the culture, like Michael Jordan, Tupac, the TV show Good Times and then transitions to highlight truth found in Scripture concerning Jesus Christ. This book is ideal for small group and discipleship settings. Its a great resource for high school and college campus ministries, as well as juvenile and adult prison ministries.
