Gungor Takes a Leap.













Gungor is a christian/worship band from Colorado. Recently renamed from The Michael Gungor Band, these four artists are taking a leap in a different direction.

Their story is an attraction since it is one that has frustrated many Christians in the last ten years. It is a story of being in a mold and breaking out.

Their theology is concerned with the problem of limiting God's freedom. God is not limited to a building, a church, or even the Bible. Though that last statement must be taken with caution we must remember that God is greater than even the revelation He has given us in the Bible. Of course our heresy check does come from knowing and understanding the Bible.

Their music focuses on a Creator God who we can be involved with mixed with exalting Him as the holy God He is. For Gungor, God is alive and active in our world. Gungor understands God's active love that is a part of God's coming kingdom.

Overall, their repetitive nature is catchy and lyrics soundly challenging.
