Brought back some good memories, and sad ones.
Keith was a unique artist.
He used Music to not just spread the Gospel, and give Jesus praise, ... but he used it to put pressure on "dead faith" do nothing believers to try to get them up and running before they meet Jesus having done nothing for Him.
He is a "type" that you dont see much in Contemporary Christian Music, as so much of Contemporary Christian music tends to write "bumper sticker" lyrics .
Very little of it is heart felt, while most of it tries to sound spiritual.
A lot of Christians are like that...... they have no real fire for God, but they do know how to "sound spiritual".
As far as i can tell, a similar to Keith, and another who would put the heat on you with his songs also died young.
Apparently the Devil puts His Bullseye on these types, to stop their influence.
Some of you might remember this amazing artist.... who was a similar type.....very similar to Keith Green.
Here he is., and His Album "Winds of Heaven, Stuff of Earth" could be considered to be the very best Contemporary Christian Album, ever created.
