When you look him up, I would like you to know that God used him to start the Jesus people movement. He was used by God to get John Wimber at the head of the fledgling Vineyard movement. You will undoubtedly encounter much hateful slander aimed at the man. As a former Vineyard worship leader, I can assure you that being involved in a genuine renewal or revival will bring fire from many parts of the body. Before Lonnie came to Christ, he was involved in the southern California late 60s-early 70s hippie movement. Hippies experimented with drugs and sex; Lonnie apparently contracted HIV. Which eventually killed him. If you can get past the hateful rhetoric, you'll see how he was used by the Lord in some pretty amazing ways. The hippies were not generally known as bible scholars, just lovers of Jesus. Facing my own mortality as we speak, I think I can understand some of what he must've gone through. I contracted Hep. C when I was 15, the third time I'd used a needle, in 1973. I was a young hippie. Which is also when I first met Jesus. I just connected on FB with my old Vineyard worship pastor...and my pastor, also. :)
