Jimi Calhoun 
A Story of Rhythm and Grace [PDF ebook] 
What the Church Can Learn from Rock & Roll about Healing the Racial Divide

From Saturday Night Rockin’
to Sunday Morning Reconciliation

Before becoming a pastor, Jimi Calhoun performed alongside many world-famous musicians, including:
Jimi Hendrix / Etta James / Hank Williams Jr. / John Lennon / Elton John /
Mick Jagger / The Four Tops / Martha and the Vandellas / Rare Earth /
Parliament-Funkadelic

In A Story of Rhythm and Grace, Calhoun weaves together engrossing stories about racial differences and reconciliation from his life in the music world and his life in the church. Reflecting on how he has often found more racial harmony on the stage and in the recording studio than in the pews, Jimi shows what religion might learn from rock and roll.
