I am a HUGE fan of U2's music and message. I listen to them often, have read lots of books about them, their faith, and their music, and have been fortunate to attend two different concerts (Vertigo 2005 in Philly and 360 Tour in 2009 in Charlottesville). Both concerts were worship experiences like I have not experienced before, and was so overwhelmed by these experiences of communal worship!

I came across this article about their first single off of last year's No Line On the Horizon album. It's about "Get On Your Boots", which is admittedly a strange song, and an even stranger video. Check out this blog post and see for yourself... I agree with their interpretation that this song is a challenge to the church to get on our boots and do the work God is calling us to do!
