Description

Hipster Christians "people with esoteric interests going against the grain," according to Brett McCracken, author of Hipster Christianity: When Church and Cool Collide in an NPR interview on December 23, 2013.[1] Hipster Christians have a renewed emphasis on aesthetics and beauty and culture, and integrate that into the church and worship. Examples range from Rend Collective, a Christian worship band who uses any instrument that makes a cool sound (Including a "Jingling Johnny"[2]), and Christians who try to find obscure verses in the Bible that "aren't your typical John 3:16."

Example Sentence

I was having QT this morning in that coffee shop you've probably never heard of, total Hipster Christian moment.
