I was 12 years old when he died. His death left me heartbroken; his music planted some amazing seeds in my life. Today, I'm 54 with a love for God and a master's degree in social work. God even gave me a son with a big curly afro just like his. I still play his music to this day. His ministry was truly a blessing to me and countless others. I pray that all family members affected by the plane crash are doing well.
I was born again 2.27.85 and started listening to his music and wanting to go to a concert...but then found out Keith had died, but his message struck so radically that I threw out all my secular songs I wrote for years for my bands, as directed by Father to do and woke up with a new song. Keith influenced my life to Go into ALL the world and preach the Gospel!! I am 68 and look forward to meeting him one day in the Kingdom!!
I'm 45 years old. (Born in '77.) I had never heard of Mr. Green until about a week ago despite turning my life over to Christ several years ago now. I've now been binge-watching all content with him I can find. I'm completely blown away that much of his message, particularly getting off our butts to share the gospel, is still as relevant today as it ever was. I don't even know if this channel is active anymore. But, man, I needed this. I guess the UA-cam algorithm got one right this week for me. I had already been doing some real reflection on certain hard truths recently. But, now it's even more for me this week... and I'm so glad for it. Just even knowing I'm not alone (and apparently haven't been for decades and didn't know it) is a comfort even while being made uncomfortable, if that makes sense. Thanks for posting TEN YEARS ago. It's still making an impact in 2023.
I was here at this concert. During Keith's time on stage, I was compelled to stand for the call to go out into the world. That same week I got an unexpected call from my friend to go to hidden people, deep in the heart of Mexico where there were native Indian dialects and no Christians. I was on a bus within that week. For the next month and other short mission trips later, I have seen God move the hearts of men in the dryest of places. We live fat and happy here in the U.S. It boils down to this:Freedom vs. Comfort. God calls us to give up our comfort in exchange for our freedom. Lord bless us with your sovereign plan. Keith was and is still impacting my life today. So has Melody. Many joyful tears have flowed, even as I write this. Thank you for serving Jesus and all of your unselfish sacrifice.
Serving the Lord in Southeast Asia for the past 17 years...by the Lord's grace only! Wanted to quit many times, but the Lord has privileged me to remain.... Please pray that the Gospel goes forth in His mighty power among the Buddhists & Muslims living here....
36 years after this concert, God is still using Keith's words to speak. There is truly an anointing here. I sense God speaking through Keith at this critical point in my life. I hope you do too.
I attended one of Keith's very last concerts in Waterloo,IA. about a week before the plane accident. I clearly remember how blessed I was to have attended. He sure challenged me to walk the walk, not just talk the talk!!!!
30+ years later I am still on the mission field...now in a former soviet nation, in part due to the challenge given through Keith, but primarily out of obedience to Jesus. No regrets! Praying for a new wave of young people to obey Jesus call to go to the nations of the earth! The job is not done.
I’m seeing this today may 13th 2020, wow is all I can say. I found out about Keith Green today and wow, what a servant, no compromising. I’m living in a time of false teachers, compromised worshippers, money loving preachers. My heart aches for the world right now, and wow God knows why he made me come across this. I need Jesus, I need to go out to the world and preach Jesus, not be comfortable in my home behind a screen, Instagram, Facebook and other platforms thinking i am serving the Lord this way, it’s so wrong.
I’ve always loved Keith Green for his “no compromise “ life dedicated to God... now I am blown away by the character of his beautiful wife who clearly lives a life of true FAITH to the Lord. God bless her and their kids.
Thank you. I discovered Keith a couple weeks ago and it really added fire and love to my worship time with the Lord. His words are helping me in my walk. I'm amazed at what Keith did in such a short period of time
When my son died we played open your eyes at his funeral ,2 months later my wife passed away. We had the same song played played at her funeral. Praise God for all of his music and Melodies help in making this all possible.

I miss this man of God and after more than 40 years, i still am moved by his songs.

I was a new Christian loved his music. Was drawn closer to God by

His songs are with me since I became Christian back in the 80's and I hear God's voice every time I listen to them, blessed be the name of the Lord !
“Jesus rose from the dead, and you can’t even get out of bed.” Ouch! Those lyrics are fire 🔥
How on earth did Melody do this after less than two years. She showed the most amazing faith.
What a woman of faith!

I hav e never seen this before last night I moved me to tears and gave me a renewed sense of urgency for the Gospel
I am watching this in April 20, 2021. Such a powerful message. I listened to Keith's cassette tapes back in the day. THE ANOINTING NEVER LEAVES
