Christianity Today Revisits ApologetiX (Thanks to You)
Wed., Feb. 9. 2005 10:56pm EST
A few weeks ago, we told you about a mixed review our latest CD got from Christianity Today's online publication at Christianitytoday.com.
Although praising some of our recent parodies, the writer panned our earlier work and added, "you have to wonder how much interest and replay value there is here. Do most non-Christians appreciate the scriptural humor? Does the majority of Apologetix's target audience recognize the mainstream songs being covered?"
Well, apparently a number of ApologetiX fans who read the article contacted the publication and answered those questions in the affirmative, because the publication scheduled an interview with ApologetiX lead singer J.Jackson this past Tuesday. The interview was conducted by a different writer than the one who did the review. Although she had only recently discovered ApologetiX, this writer said she had thoroughly enjoyed the "New & Used Hits" CD, as had her 12-year-old daughter! The interview lasted over an hour and is for an article the publication plans to post this coming Monday, February 14.
We praise God for this opportunity and for you fans, because He definitely used your input to help us. Thank you! Here's the link for site if you want to check out the article on February 14. If you like the way it turns out, make sure you email them a Valentine!
