I asked Jay about Bono, qualifying my admiration for Bono by noting that he is not as vocal about Jesus as I’d like him to be:

Behind the scenes, one on one with people, (Bono) is incredibly vocal about Jesus. There’s a story about one of the Gallagher brothers from Oasis talking about how he spent three hours discussing God with Bono, and he said it was just a very intense conversation. Well, a couple of days later, Bono FedExed him a book – What’s So Amazing About Grace by Philip Yancey. It’s just like to me that Philip Yancey’s book is like Bono’s “tract” if you will. Behind the scenes, spending time with him, the man loves Jesus. He’d be the first to tell you he’s not a good advertisement for God, but the dude loves Jesus. If you go to one of the concerts, it’s right there; if you’re looking for it, it’s right there, singing a song called “Yahweh,” a modern worship song, and that’s one of many songs.
