Kanye West Might Become A Donkey Kong Banana

There has been an overwhelming response from the masses (particularly white evangelicals) to Kanye West’s new album Jesus is King. I think it symptomatic of one of the more crucial weaknesses in american evangelicalism and in Kanye fashion, I want to get it off my chest.

I'm worried about Kanye.

I am worried that evangelical leaders will come out of the woodwork trying not to disciple him but to claim him as a disciple, and the two are quite different.
