Useimmat teistä tietävät minut räppäri ja esiintyjä, mutta totuus on, sydän Olen aina ollut saarnaaja.
Niin kauan kuin olen tehnyt musiikkia, syvimmän toive on julistaa evankeliumia ja julistaa hyvyyden ja kirkkauden Jeesuksen. Jumalan armosta olen ollut mahdollisuus käyttää musiikkia tehdä, että julkinen vaiheessa. Olen rakastanut joka toinen sitä ja olen yrittänyt tehdä sen huippuosaamista. Vuosien saatossa, Olen aisti Jumala kutsuvan minua ja varustamiseen minua ei vain tehdä musiikkia, vaan myös saarnata ja kirjoittamaan.
Siksi viime vuonna kirjoitin Hyvä elämä, kirja, joka sukeltaa syvemmälle viestiin takana minun ennätys Saman otsikon. Se on myös miksi ilmoitti viime syksynä, että en olisi matkustaa aivan yhtä paljon kuin olen ollut. Haluan oppia olemaan uskollinen pastori, ja että vain todella tapahtua yhteydessä paikallisen seurakunnan. Joten olen ottaen aika investoida oppimista godly paimenet minun kirkon Washington, DC. Herra suo, kuten olen palvella henkilökunta kirkossani, Otan myös kyettävä kehittämään työkalut minun täytyy palvella pitkäaikainen paikallisessa ministeriön.
Luotan Jumalaan että hyviä päiviä ovat edessä, ja älä huoli - tulet kuulemaan paljon minulta, kirjoittamasta musiikin opetusta ja saarnaa. Olen kiitollinen kaikesta tuesta varrella, ja kehotan teitä liittymään minulle ajamiseen.
This still wasn’t clear. So he’s not completely retiring from music?
No he’s not stepping away from music, he’s devoting more of his time to his pastoral studies and commitment to his local church
At first I believed he was retiring. Now every time I listen to his old songs, I’m like… he’s coming back, he’s way too good not too. Still one of my favorite artists.
Awesome it is great to see a young person who is willing to pursue god to the point of stepping down from a career in music as his main focus to putting gods word as a preacher and pastor first. You were already doing that with your music you know, now its a musicless song.
Im proud of Trip,for a young person he really gets God.He gets the true meaning for living for God.Keep up the good work TRIP ;)
I doubt Trip will be a Pastor. He loves Christ rap too much. He ain’t giving that up.
He really doesn’t need anyone to make him look good bro, honestly…
Hei Trip,
Who do you listen to for sermons? I see Piper’s work interwoven in Reach’s work, what other kind of figures do you listen to for inspiration/enlightenment on scripture?
Kiitos.
Thank God for you man. You are a blessing.
would love to hear you speak, your music ministers my soul
He’s already done several sermons, you can find them on Youtube.
you encouragement makes me feel good in making decision anytime i reflect of some of your music. more grace!
Am so encouraged by your passion for Christ.
Look forward to hearing more from you soon, in whatever form that may be.
Looking forward to what the Lord will continue to do in and through you, bro. Excellent.
Which church in DC do you serve at?
Capitol Hill Baptist Church (www.capitolhillbaptist.org)
Definitely understand, the calling of a shepherd is first to his immediate flock. We’re having a conference at my church New Bethel Church in Kansas City, Kansas especially dedicated to up and coming pastors. My pastor Suff. Bishop A. Glenn Brady is an excellent mentor and is passionate about pushing people into the abundance of God’s blessings for their lives. You should look him up on FB!
I pray the Holy Spirit guides your step and lead you to bigger and better things.
Just remember that preaching is communicating the gospel, however you do that best. I have always found your music to be wonderful sermons. A lot of times we think that a ‘call’ means we have to do the standard preacher role, when what He is equipping us for is what our hands find to do.
Just a thought.
My the Lord bless and keep you.
This really didn’t surprise me. I can see that’s where that dude’s heart is calling. He staying true to it and I pray for God’s best for him. And that he stays humble. It’s funny that I’m wearing his “Can I brag on my Lord?” wristband. That’s who I know will get the glory and for that I’m all with it. Let’s GO!!!!!
God bless you brother as you go after this endeavor. I have enjoyed your music and your theology is tight. I hope the Lord continues to be glorified through your work.

I am going the distance with you Trip.
Hebrews 12:1-2 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset [us], and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of [meidän] faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
With you all the way trip! Luv hearing you from your music to your book and your sermons. May our Good Lord continue to bless you and your family.
Eu curtu muito as musicas de Trip Lee e gostaria de vê ele cantar aqui no Brasil.
Ur music is just too good for you to put away! Your music is your sermons…..it touches alot of souls even to the point that you are unaware. It may not be reflected in album sales, Grammys, sold out shows but know that its to His glory. Like you said don’t look for that boxed up comfortable Jesus, it doesn’t exist. I will say this if the conviction or love of music digs into your soul enough, I know you will be back! Think about the missionaries who are tortured and kill in this day and age for Christ…..I know many of them thought of returning to their local churches where there is comfort! They are the brave soldiers…..warriors….i admire them more than any other “clique” in Christ….They are truly “unashamed”!
