Any good stoner rock with faith based lyrics? I don't mind listening to secular music but I would like to find a good Christian band that plays this style.
See: Kadavar, Fu Manchu, Meliah Rage, Blue Cheer, Kyuss

Not really any that I know of, closest would be the doom masters (but it's not really the same thing as Stoner). You know, Place of Skulls, Starchild, etc. I dig the genre too, (especially those few Corrosion of Conformity albums in the 1990's), but I just haven't seen any in the Christian world.
You might like Electric Underground (although more proto-doom than stoner IMO). http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/eunderground
Also the now defunct band F.O.G. http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/fogrocks2
Or maybe Medisin Wheel https://www.reverbnation.com/medisinwheel

Thanks fellas. I downloaded the Evangelist stuff and after listening to the Under the Sun track Kerrick posted, I'm gonna check them out too.
I'm not a huge fan of doom but if there's enough stoner-like stuff happening I can dig it.

Ah, Under The Sun is quite good. I assume you like Place Of Skulls and In-Graved, yes? If not... then get on that!
But in terms of more stoner-y sound... I've been meaning to pick up the Stars That Move CD; from what I've heard of it, it's quite good. It's from the main guy from Starchild - both Christian bands.
Stone Groove Records has a lot though not all of it is Christian. It's run by Randy of Troglodyte Dawn.
Not Christian, but they got a cross in their logo hahaha:
I really like Mourn a lot and listen to them pretty regularly.
Also, Albert Bell's Sacro Sanctus isn't "Christian" but has some Christian themes:

I would definitely say Stars That Move and Starchild are closer to the stoner genre than most of the other ones mentioned.

My favorite album in the style, the out of print Def American release from Trouble. Some positive lyrics.

Good recommends there...
What NiceBoard needs is a little button on each person's comment like Facebook has - a "Like" button. To avoid copyright, they could make it "Agree" and "Disagree" buttons... or "Love it" and "Don't Love It" buttons... that'd be cool
