I'd have called myself a struggling Christian who was trying to find holes in everything he had been raised to believe. I was a doubting Thomas.
Our goal was to create a record that would hold up in both secular and Christian camps,
I was a Christian in Creed, but nobody ever asked me.
Now, there are people that are Christian artists, because they have a purpose to be evangelical for Christ. I don't feel I've been called to that yet. Now, that could change. There's no telling what kind of call God will put on my life.
The Christian community latched onto a lot of my music, because there were a lot of things about my struggle they related to. But I didn't really want to come out and be identified as a Christian, because I didn't want to be a hypocrite, because my life wasn't right.
But do you know I was never asked in 10 years if I was a Christian personally? We were only asked if Creed was a Christian band.
