okok. will give it a shot... (copious intake of breath...) it goes something like this.

In the book of Ephesians , Paul tells us how to be a Christian, how to relate to the world through our relationship with Christ, how to “live in the LIGHT” (5:8-14) whilst in the midst of darkness.

He urges us to put on the NEW NATURE (4:20-24), to apply wisdom and care to our lives (5:15-17), and to put on the whole armour of God (6:10-17).

And although there is an abundance of practical specifics, detailing the appropriate behaviours for husbands and wives, children and parents, employees/employers, about dealing with anger, bitterness, lying, slander, etc etc, the main message to the church is not what to DO.

It is, in essence, what (and how) to BE.
Be Renewed in our minds, Be Mature in our faith, Be United as the One Body of Christ, the building built on Christ as the cornerstone.
Be in the world but separate, set apart for His use, Holy, and living to the praise of His glory.

We the dudes at BEEPmusic feel called to serve the body of Christ through the infusion of creative energy in worship and music and in so doing, want to hold fast to Paul’s "BE" message to the EPhesians.

BE-EP beep!

okok so its not einstein! but it does have a certain in-your-face-ness which carries the faintest whiff of anti-estab.
appropriate, considering what we're doing.
beep-on!

thanks josh for the explanation.. i came up with one myself... :) BE-EP (EP as in Extended Play). Since it's a music download site.. Well, sort of EP for now at least, and hopefully not for long. And I suppose you the dudes at BEEPmusic would be the official BEEPERS? :)

Cheerios on your slightly anti-estab. establishment. An inspiration to say the least. :)

Hey, when things don't get going.... we often get a "beep" to get us going. So.... to "Beep", things are certainly moving on. Exciting and inspiring!!
