  • "Mixtape Theology takes us back to the cherished time of 90s Christian music. A great read for anyone seeking to rediscover the timeless truth and the ways that groundbreaking artists worked to weave ministry into their music while impacting the culture that they were existing within.”

    Michael W. Smith

  • "The 90s Christian music scene was a melting pot of diverse styles and voices, all united by a common purpose—to glorify God and draw people closer to Him. Mixtape Theology brilliantly explores the impact of this cultural movement, while making connections that will inspire you."

    CeCe Winans

  • “The 90s was a special decade in Christian music… I love that Mixtape Theology has written a book that draws from the inspiration of that era and brings God’s truth to the forefront. Way to go guys!”

    Rebecca St. James

  • “4HIM's career started in January of 1990, so we had a front row seat to the greatest decade of CCM! Mixtape Theology is not only a gift to those of us who were a part of so many great songs during that era, but also to the listeners who made the journey with us."

    Andy Chrisman, 4HIM

  • “When I first heard about the Mixtape Theology devotional book using 90s CCM as the backdrop, I wasn’t sure what to expect. After reading it I am hooked! What a great way to bring these 90s CCM song into the modern age by coupling them with interesting stories, inspiration, and the Word of God!”

    Danielle Kimmey Torrez, Out of Eden

  • "Mixtape Theology captures the heart and soul of the 90s Contemporary Christian Music era, a time that personally resonates with me as it marked the period when I discovered my own calling towards Christian music and eventually formed MercyMe. This devotional beautifully weaves together humor, faith, and the music that shaped so many of us."

    Bart Millard, Mercy Me

  • “This book of devotions will plant seeds to drive the reader back the music that God has given for the world to hear. Devotional books have always been my go-to for the short attention span of us creative types and I can’t wait to be inspired all over again!”

    Lisa Bevill

  • “I consider this period of Christian music as the ‘golden era.’ I’m excited to see Mixtape Theology celebrate this much-loved music and the theology behind it in this highly creative devotional.”

    - Todd Collins, Grammy-winning, Dove Award-winning producer + co-founder of Gotee Records

  • “Point of Grace entered the music scene in the early 90’s when Christian music was really ramping up. There were finally outlets for all types of genre’s of music, but all with The good news of the gospel. Songwriters could actually make a living writing Christian music and we feel we had an opportunity to sing some of those amazing songs. I love the idea of Mixtape Theology! It is definitely the soundtrack to much of my life. Remembering these great songs and having these devotionals that go along with them speaks to my soul.”

    Denise Jones, Point of Grace

  • “At the risk of sounding self serving, I have to say that the 90’s was a unique time for music across all genres. Christian music is no exception to that rule. As an artist and songwriter, I appreciate when the focus is on Jesus and the gospel message is front and center. As Proverbs 25:2 says, It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out. The 90’s was a time of seeking things out for me and so many of my compatriots. Mixtape Theology is a spiritually enlightening journey into some of the best songs of the era and a nostalgic ride you will enjoy. At the end of it all, we remember that we truly need a ‘Common Creed.’ We need Jesus, the Savior of the world!”

    Wes King

  • "Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual songs are one of the greatest proofs that our faith in Jesus is real. Music comes straight from the heart and what we love, we sing about! Mixtape Theology brings out the biblical principles behind the iconic CCM songs of the 90's in a creative way that will give a deeper understanding of our faith and encourage the saints along the way."

    Andy Leftwich—Four-time Grammy Award-winning instrumentalist and producer

  • “Mixtape Theology: 90’s Christian Edition is a welcome trip down memory lane with artists and music that left a cultural impact. More importantly, however, through personal stories and biblical references, the writers reveal the spiritual significance that connected these truths to the hearts of listeners. This book will give you a warm sense of nostalgia while drawing you back to the cross of Christ.”

    DeWayne Hamby, Christian music journalist and author

  • If you grew up on 90s Christian music, then you probably have pretty fond memories of what that subculture was like to be a part of. Mixtape Theology is a clever, funny, joyful and inspiring look back at a time when believers were proud, most of all, of being a "Jesus Freak" and had their thoughts frequently dwelling on what Jesus would do in any given situation. As you can imagine, this era of CCM massively shaped my own faith and even who I'd become as an adult, and there's an encouraging yet bittersweet experience to be had in revisiting it through a book like this. Mofield & Cash have crafted an accurate retrospective of this incredible time in the history of Christian music and culture... and it makes me long for those glory days of Christian rock music."

    John DiBiase, founder of Jesusfreakhideout.com

  • For those of us that lived through it, this book is a wonderful reminder of God at work in the music and ministry of the 90s – “Mixtape” is quirky, fun, inspirational, and has something to say to every generation!

    Doug Griffin – Afternoon Radio Host on 94FM The Fish/Nashville

  • “If you loved 90’s CCM, you’re going to love the dissection of some of the biggest songs of that era. Ashley and Rachel are passionate about the music and have put fabulous effort into looking at the theology behind the songs. This will be a deep dive that you will enjoy!”

    Greg Goodman - CCM Air Personality

  • “This book transports me back to my roots, buying music for a local Christian bookstore in the 90s. I'm reminded of that place and stage of my life, as well as the deep truths of my faith. As a former church planter and megachurch pastor for 17 years--and now as a business owner with several years in the marketplace--this book calls me to live in the present and engage my theology in my everyday life. Mixtape Theology remembers the 90s with some welcome nostalgia, but it also challenges us to live forward with truth and conviction. It gives us good reasons to keep these songs playing on repeat in our hearts and minds--and, hopefully, on our stereos.”

    Daniel Montgomery—CEO of Leadership Reality and author of Leadership Mosaic and How to Be Present in an Absent World

What is Mixtape Theology?

As part-devotional and part-90’s retrospective, Mixtape Theology is an exercise in going deeper into the Bible verses behind our favorite 90s CCM songs resulting in a fuller understanding of God and His redemptive plan.

We also poke fun and reminisce about what made the 90s Christian culture so awesome. We hope to be funny yet inspiring, kind of like a good Mark Lowry joke about his sweet mama.
