We’re A Long Way Off

I have been listening to this song for over a year now and contemplating it very regularly. It is my favorite song from Gungor’s album I am Mountain. For me it is such a call to humility and grace. May it encourage, challenge, and bless you as well.

A Beautiful Music Video with a Powerful Message

First Live Rap in 20 Years!

Last week I did a little rap in a song at our Shelter Rock Church Easter Service in the NYCB Theatre at Westbury. It was the first time I have rapped live in 20 years. A little rusty, but sure was fun.

Keith Green … Still Influencing the World 32 Years After His Death

I remember hearing about his untimely death when I was a young boy just 6 years old. I remember listening to his vinyl records in our home as I was growing up. I remember listening to certain songs over and over again, allowing the words to penetrate my heart. Keith Green had a profound impact on my young life. Later, as an adult, I read his life story in the book No Compromise by his wife Melody. Just a couple of weeks ago, we sang one of his songs in church, and I turned to my wife and said, “Keith Green’s songs are as powerful today as they were when he sang them live.” Tonight we watched the DVD version of his story with our small group of senior high students, and had a conversation afterward. Almost 32 years after his death, Keith Green continues to have an impact in the world.

Great Music by Amazing Students!
