You know you're a Hipster Christian when...

  • ...you check the mirror one last time before you head out to that weekly college service.
  • ...you read a John Piper book before the Bible during your devotional.
  • ...you tell someone you'll pray for them and then forget. And then remember. And then forget.
  • ...you own lots of outdoor gear.
  • ...you would NEVER consider buying TOMS a part of your tithe.
  • ...you own a Mac. And an iPhone. And an iPod. And have Scripture on the background of all of them.
  • ...you spend the time between class watching sermon clips on YouTube.
  • ...you pray for the people who yell at "sinners and fornicators" on your campus.
  • ...you have more than three journals.
  • ...you want social justice more than good grades.
  • ...you look for ways to practice humility.
  • ...you disclose too much information to that other Christian in your class.
  • ...you make fun of other Hipster Christians on your blog that no one reads.
