Sufjan Stevens is a breath of fresh air. It's nice to hear a fellow Christian praise in contemporary music. There is nothing to be ashamed of, especially singing of God...or Abraham and the great sacrifice.
@beethovenqueen hadn't read this yet, thank you so much! actually a Dutch (woman) singer-songwriter saw this clips too and asked me to do an official video, it's in the response...
Sufjan Stevens is a great Christian artist, his music just goes to show that wow! God gives you gifts and God just blessed Sufjan with this gift of being able to write music, it's very incredible and just makes me loves God's gifts even more.
Sufjan is a Christian artist to his bones. Every line is born from a Christian engagement with life. A broad Christianity though--one where mystery is always present. Perhaps not the narrow type that makes the most noise. Dickens, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, TS Eliot, Bresson all engage life from a completely Christian perspective too but the secularists try to cut them off from their intellectual source. Can't be done, as they all pretty much said. Martin Luther King too.
sufjan steven is not a christian artist. He is a christian, but he is not only touching upon christianity in his music, and his music can relate to everyone, even people like me, who aren't christian. Just because some of his songs touch upon religion, doesn't mean his is solely a christian artist.
True, but there is a certain vein of music that is devoted to Chrisitanity; hymns, contemporary Christian rock (such as Relient K), worship songs (hillsong united, etc.) are all focused solely on God. Sufjan Stevens delves off into other realms of music, but his music does have a strong Christian undertone.
Yeah i think so too. Some of his songs are not faith based and some are. So i think it's fair to call him a Christian artist, it's just that his style is unique and unlike mainstream Christian. I don't know why people always seem to have a problem with calling an aritst who sings faith based songwriting artist A Christian Artist but the way certain people reply makes it seem like they think less of Christian artists. Anways long story short i agree with you.
every picture in this video is absolutely beautiful. i would literally give my arm and leg to experience a portion of it. sufjan stevens music is the most calming thing ive ever heard
Very powerful video. As for where I got the images for the videos I have put together, I got the majority of them simply googling the word nature and the selecting images.
:-) it*s{OH!} nice.

Amazing song. Blows my mind that he can do so much with so little. He's like the Toyota Prius of the music world...

Abraham, worth a righteous one.
Take up on the wood,
put it on your son.
Lake or lamb.
There is none to harm.
When the angel came,
you had raised your arm.
Abraham, put off on your son.
Take instead the ram
until Jesus comes.
