Hip Hop “Glory, Gospel, Church, World” from Omri Miles
I first started listening to hip hop music in the late 80s. If there’s one thing that characterized the hip hop I listened to from then through the 90s, it was filled with musically gifted, but lyrically vile, musicians. For that reason, I’m grateful for brothers like Omri Miles, and his latest album, “GGCW” (Glory Gospel Church World) . Born and raised in New Orleans, Omri came to faith in Christ in 2008. Since then, he completed the Master of Arts in Biblical Counseling program at The Master’s University in 2016, became a certified biblical counselor with the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors, then finished the Master of Divinity degree at The Expositors Seminary in 2020. Omri currently serves as an elder at Grace Bible Church in Tempe, Arizona. He is married and has four children. In the midst of all that, he’s been making music since 2008. Omri’s purpose of the album is to present four pillars which support a biblical theology of missions (Glory, Gospel, Church, World)
