Its Been a Keith Green Kinda Week




This past week marked the 29th year that Keith Green died in a plane crash . He perished with 2 of his young children as well on that tragic day. However his legacy lives in his music and ministry he and his wife started. He was a truly passionate follower of Jesus Christ . The sad part that at the time of his death , he was truly starting to deepen and grow in doctrine and was understanding the dynamic of law and gospel .

The day of that marked his anniversary of his death , I watched a documentary of his life and began listening to some of his music again.Then I went into Rainbows End located in Wolfville ,NS . One of my favorite places in Wolfville .They sale used books,DVD's,CD's,Comics and LP's . Its a great little place to find cool stuff and chat with the owners Jim and Susan. A little plug there. Anyway , the day I went in ,low and behold they had just got in 4 Keith Green Lp's . God's providence or what . I snatched up all 4 and was very pleased. They are in great shape.

Listening to his music again I realize what a gift he was . He wanted all to be done for God's glory and wanted  to share the gospel of Jesus  only Christ. But God had other plans and called him home at only 28. But in his music and ministry , countless lives have been effected and God used his music and life to call many to Jesus.
