When I was a child in like the 5th grade I asked Jesus into my heart. Unfortunately I did not understand all that He had gone through or what dying on the cross for really meant. I slipped away the summer of 7th grade. I discovered girls and marijuana and rock and roll music. One of the concerts I went to after high school was Alice Cooper. It was a great show and I had a great time. Years had gone by and my younger brother was killed by a drunk driver. I always knew God existed I just didn't know much about Him. What I thought I knew was that God had taken the person from me whom I loved the most. I do not think anyone understood how mad at God that I was. I yelled at Him, I probably called Him every hurtful thing I could think of. I blamed God and then I blamed the person. The guy lost his license for ten years and was placed on probation but got no jail time. This made me even more furious. I was drowning in hate and anger. I went to bars and got drunk and picked fights with people twice my size. No one would fight me. You see I wanted to hurt people as much as I hurt and I am not sure why. My girlfriends mother whom I had never met invited us to her church over the phone. We went to church and people were singing and praising Jesus while lifting their hands in the air. I did not understand why. In my drunken cries to the Lord I demanded that he reveal Himself to me. Obviously God was patient with me but He revealed Himself to me while at that church. He got a hold of my heart and my brain. Yes He spoke to me. Not in an audible voice but I heard Him inside of my head and inside of my heart. He told me that He was real and that I wasn't alone. I laid it down on that altar. I cried my eyes out. I wasn't alone anymore but I still did not understand it all. It did not happen all at once but years later I had come to many terms about many things and although it took me twenty years to be able to say I forgive him with the help of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit that anger and hate went away. A great weight was lifted the moment I said Lord I forgive him. In all of this time God took booze, and cigarettes away. He did amazing things that if i kept typing would be way too long to read here. He revealed Himself to me because He loves me not because I demanded He do so. No one has control over God. Because He loves me I can face tomorrow and I am still here and with His help I do face whatever tomorrows I have left. If you're here and you need Him and read this then trust me if you call upon the Lord, He will help you, you just have to be sincere. Tell Him how you feel and what you need. If you come to Him you will never be the same ever again.
@@vickibaker8372 those were the toughest days I have ever faced. They were tougher than what we are all facing right now. I guess I can say that because now that I have God I have hope. Not the kind of hope that the average person but the hope that only comes from God. We all need to share our testimony to show others what God has done and what he will do for anyone if they just come to Him. You're welcome and be blessed.
I grew up with Alice Cooper, , I was one of those disinfrachised teens he sang to, Today I am a Child of the most High💕🙏, like him, and totally relate. I'm so happy he is following Christ ♥️See you when we get home Alice 🙏🙏
I will never forget the day I became a Christian. October 16th 1999. My (first) wife was openly and often cheating on me, she was alienating me against our 2 kids, my kidneys were failing and I was going to be homeless. I didn't realize it at the time but the lord was setting me up with a better life. I remember sleeping in the back of a moving truck, guitar case for my bed (very uncomfortable) and a smelly moving blanket to cover up with. Chicago in October is pretty cold. I asked lord to show me he's real. The following day, I went to work at the local grocery store stocking shelves and I look down at the floor and see a cloth bracelet laying face down so I picked it up and turned it around. It said "follow Jesus in the new millennium". That was the day I took him in my life.
This is one of the best interviews I've ever listened to. I'm not a fan of Alice Cooper's music (it's not really my style), but I have so much respect and admiration for the man that he is and the agent of Christ that he has become. He's teaching a whole group of people that would never turn on Christian radio, or go into a church. And I praise God for that.
Praying for Alice Cooper, God knows his heart, and I do pray that he truly shines for Jesus in all he does. His music isn’t my style but I do respect him and wish him well in all he does.
Amen! Before I was saved the music of my heart is of course my youth, so bands like Deep Purple ( addicted to John Lord´s Hammond), Nazareth, The Who, The Band, ELO, Cream, everything with Beck and so on. When it comes to Cooper it is one song; School´s out. I still feel the freedom when leaving school´s indoctrination. 16 years later I took a lone and went to a really good Bible school. Economicly insane. The spiritual growht. Legs growing, canser disappiered. God works! God bless you on all sides. Love from Sweden.,
This is so cool. 15 years ago I quit heroin and drove 2 hours everyday to the methadone clinic in Boone, N.C. On the way I would listen to you ( Greg ) on the radio. You changed the way I thought about God and Jesus and I now am raising my 3 teenage daughters in Christ, the best way I can...with Gods help. Thank You from Johnson City, Tennessee.
You have a beautiful testimony too. Use it to bless other's lives. I never been in any drug substance so i do not know how it feels like, your story is also an education to all drug users out there and to ppl like me. God bless you and your family
Hagaydigi Lagauriyogo thank you, during that transition in my life God spoke to me as clear and audible as anything I’ve ever heard...one word...”Others”...And it echoed for days inside my head. He speaks to me in prayer but telling it now gives me chills and feels me with peace.
I will pray for you that the Holy Spirit will reveal God's purpose in your life. I really can discern that He has a huge calling in your life. I'm amazed by the transition happened in your life. God is a working miraculous Father. To him be the glory and praise forever!
This is without a doubt the best interviews with a rockstar I've ever witnessed substantive and he's so comfortable in his own skin tells people who he was and who he is no apologies for either. I just love this and the stories wow!
Powerful testimony. My son Jason is struggling with alcohol Please pray for him to return to Jesus. He and I were baptized together when he was 17. He knew only God could keep him from alcohol and asked Him to keep him from it at the time. Then he went to college. Now he us 46 married 2 kids great job but could lose all . Please uphold him . He has recently seen a doc for physical health. God bless you for your testimony . Jesus is King
Heavenly Father We lift up Jason to You!!! Send Your Mighty Angels to combat the fallen angels to move out away from lying to Jason. Strengthen him. Open his spiritual eyes. So that he can turn to You with ALL of his heart soul and mind. Loosen his tongue so he can speak Your Truths for the world is hungry for it! Bless his wife, children and mom. Strengthen their Faith in You Thank You for hearing and answering our prayers. In The Name of Yeshua
@@anglebow8706 Because his career is nothing but fearless wickedness and blasphemy. He turns the grace of God into lasciviousness. You gotta be kind of stupid and a lot lost, or a charismatic witch, to think for one second that devil is a Christian. I don't know one saved person who would believe "Alice" is a brother in Christ. They would all laugh at the thought. Alice might be deceived but is most likely a satanist church infiltrator. Either way he needs prayer and the gospel because he's as lost as any devil.
I went to 2 Alice Cooper concerts back in the seventies when I was just a kid. Loved him then and still love him today. So glad to hear he is a Christian. God bless Alice!
Right on! What a changed man! This time he sings his Hit “ONLY WOMEN BLEED” with a cross around his neck! He has a whike new fan base that has taken the place of his old fan base in their 70s Now he can be a Rock Star Christian Evangelist rocking out with Marilyn Manson and other satanic singers ! Schools out for summer has risen from the dead in the hearts of God’s children ! Where there is no discernment there is no truth
I am now a born-again Christian too, so glad to know that Alice Cooper found Christ. I've always been a huge fan! I'm 68 he75 still got it going on, Rock on my brother in Christ 🙏
I have the same testimony. Grew up in a Christian home, got out on my own, and lived literally like he'll for decades. Then I got clean and realized where I was in relation to Christ and eternity. Praise God for endless grace, mercy, and forgiveness
I'm alive today by grace of God. I've survived a stroke a blood bacteria and lymphoma cancer. I should be dead now, but Jesus saved my life being with me through my stroke my lymphoma cancer and my blood bacteria. Praise God for every day I'm alive.
This is so encouraging!! I'm 58 but in my 20's, I hung around with a rock'n' roll crowd. I've been saved for 28 years but I still pray for some of the musicians that I once knew. This is proof that the LORD can save anyone!!!
Growing up, I didn't care about Alice Coopers music but was Rock and Roll-Heavy Metal 😔💯. Now I Believe in Jesus 🥰 and can see Jesus in Alice Cooper 🥳💯.
Great testimony. I am also a shepherd hook Christian. A runaway that the Lord came after with a death grip on His shepherd's hook. Jesus never ditches His sheep.
God bless this man! Standing for Christ and reaching out to young people! He has taken the second chance that God has given him and used it for God’s glory! I would love to spend time with him!
As a kid, my Mom took my eldest sister to see Alice Cooper and Led Zeppelin. My Mom had seen Elvis with my Dad several times so a bit of a culture shock but they loved Alice Cooper (Sorry Zeps, she thought you were too loud), and decades later my college friend saw him out in California and she said he was one of the nicest men she ever met. Love his radio show as well. Total respect. Great interview and well done Pastor Greg!
This is the best interview I have ever seen. I am a surviver of a cult (ran away at 13), physically and mentally abused before i found Christ. At 24 I became a Christian and with the ptsd of almost being murdered I fell off and started doing drugs. He speaks me.
I’m assuming from your comment that you’re still struggling with drugs. Never give up on yourself. You still have life in you and even if it’s only hope that you have to get clean again, it’s the most formidable weapon there is. I have been there before, several times, and I will be praying for you.
Rejoice in the fact that God has saved you many times. You are very special ❤. Ask Him to help you forgive the perp who almost took your life, but praise God who saved you. Celebrate your life. Live!
I have accepted god into my heart when I asked a beatiful Nigerian girl if I may sit on the bench next to her at my college, I asked what she was doing, she said praying. She asked if I would accept god into my heart also, I thought for a second, I truly needed him and she led me in prayer, Truly was that the establishment of the moral compass I was needing. I find shame is a tool, if one is ashamed, they prob should head in another direction. GOD BLESS YOU ❤
I’ve been a fan of Alice since I was 12 years old. Lost my older brother back then in 75 and somehow Alice seemed to understand my grief and my anger and confusion. Fast forward years later; I meet and fall in love the summer of Alice’s trash album was released. 2 years after that my youngest daughter was born under too many miraculous circumstances to type here. And she all on her own became a huge Alice fan. She went with her Daddy to see Alice in concert in Boston when she was just 9 years old. I gave up my own ticket because she just begged me to see him. She adored him. Still does all these years later. Other people would ask her why she liked him and didn’t he scare her. She said no, I can see his light. There’s so much more I could say but maybe if I ever get the chance to speak with Alice or my daughter does. We can share more. Anyway he may dress in black, and put on a “show” for the fans. But some of us lucky or blessed few can “see” his true heart and light. Thank you Alice for your great songs and music. For being there for me when I myself was a teen girl going through a very sad, difficult time in my own life. It felt like you understood. Thank you 🙏🏻 May God always bless you and your family. Much love and respect from a long time fan, an anonymous face, just a simple Mom now who also loves rock and roll and God too.
Alice is the consummate professional. I've been to around a dozen of his shows throughout the past thirty years, and have NEVER been disappointed with the performance. He always throws in deep cuts alongside the popular songs, and it's never stale. Many performers could stand to learn from his work ethic.
Why has not anyone done a biopic movie about Alice Cooper? It would be fascinating and could be both a testimony and a movie that would draw Rock music fans to see. No bait and switch required, just the truth of his life.
@@brendaellman44 Oh. Apparently you have not seen his newest commercial where his is dressed like and made up like a demon. OR, his current tour with Rob Zombie. (another Christian I suppose) I agree it takes time to come to a fuller understanding of what it means to follow Christ but some things are just basic to common sense. When I got saved I KNEW before hand it meant to repent a TURN from my wicked ways. Not continue to make money from them And where is his Pastor? (the "Shepard") Don't be so easily duped.
What a great interview. It showed Alice's humanity, humour, and Christ-centeredness. Greg, you are a remarkable interviewer bringing out the story of very unlikely people.
Randy Burrill sharp and sober lol more like in that blood drinking/vampire facial lifestyle check out his latest band/supergroup Hollywood Vampires (where in the Bible does it tells us to imitate dark things and vampires again? I forget lol) wake up brothers and sisters this man is not Christian Greg and his team should do some research on whom they promote and the music he panders to us a safe even though it’s secular
I’m 52, I never really knew much of Alice cooper, heard some of the songs, I wasn’t a follower of music so much…but this interview IS AMAZINg. Praise God that you had this interview, and praise God for both of you!
@@cybervoyager8668 I see what you are getting, but as far as I am concerned, God will be and is the judge of whether or not someone is a Christian. He has more proof about Alice Cooper (Vincent Fernier) than any person on Earth will ever have.
Alice Cooper was my hero in my teens... Loved his music... Wanted to emulate him..got born again at 20 and left that world...But now my hero is connected to me through Christ. Wonderful! Thank you Jesus!
I loved watching this conversation!! When I was a little on the wild side at 17, my dad said I was a complete angel one year to breaking loose the following year. I remember driving with my friends in my car including my younger sister, racing all over town and blaring Alice Cooper. To be honest they are memories that I'm happy to have. I walked away from God for a few years because I was just interested in having fun and running loose. These days I'm unbelievably happy to be with God. God is my passion these days. I can't hear enough sermons and I thrive for the word of God. Right now I'm very interested in hearing the inside story of what Alice Cooper went through. After all, I listened to him so much that I can hear the music still playing in my head, that was almost 40 years ago.
Wow how super cool to find out the guy that used to play every Halloween in Detroit is now a Christian! I think you can reach so many people like this with your testimony! I too was in a very dark place in my life and now I know Jesus! People listen to my testimony because of the dark places I have been. I don't continue to live in darkness but in the light. Its because of where he has been and where he is now that gets the attention to share the Gospel. We are all sinners we all fall short and while we were still his enemies or sinners Christ died for us! I am happy to know you are saved Alice Cooper!
Greatest interview ever!!!! Jesus, Alice's career and so soooo many little insights into icons of music and movies!!!! That was awesome!!! I met Alice at a BMW pro-am golf tournament back in the early 2000's and he was so kind and gracious, he talked to my kids like they were old friends!!!
Not only is Alice Cooper one of my favourite music artist but I always enjoy listening to interviews conducted with him. Intelligent humorous and enjoyable. Looking forward to Detroit Stories coming out in February.
I listened 'Last Temptation' throughout the time in high school and always wondered that the lyrics sounded like a song of prodigal son to me...... It's great and wonderful to know that the Lord never left me alone even when I was so far away from him and denied him constantly. Hallelujah!
This is one of the most clear informative, interview of any rock music icon interviewed by a pastor like Greg Laurie around. Thanks Alice & Greg. After seeing Jesus Revolution and it happened around the early 70s, I realized that the Jesus Wave across the nation,hit me in New York City. I was about 16 years old and was a long haired, rock music lover that my own church looked down on. God never abandoned me and through much up and downs in life, I’m in my late 60s now and my faith and walk has been filled with miracles and wonders. Listening to this interview, I can say that God works wonders through the least likely in man’s eyes, for His Mission. 😇
That was awesome. I’ve never really paid much attention to Alice cooper. I was more into pop in my younger years. I didn’t really listen to much rock until I started hanging out with my husband. But I remember learning from my parents that Alice Cooper had become a Christian, which made me really happy for him. So I was excited to see this interview w/ him. He seems like such a down to earth guy! I think it just proves that God makes us all individuals with a purpose. Each of us are able to reach a different crowd based on our life story and who we are... NOTHING is an accident with God. He really does use all things for the good to those who love Him and are called ☺️
Beautiful comment. We're all individuals under God, but God _is_ truth and truth is universal. The closer we are to Him, the more universal our individual experiences and messages are.
I love Alice Cooper. But religion tricked people to believe in hell. Then they sell the only product that can save them lol. Every religion is based on fear passed down from generation to generation through indoctrination. Just look how stupid Christ would be if there's no hell or heaven. That's how absurd the idea of salvation is. There are over 4,000 religions in the world. Religion divides people. It's pure bullshit! Not to mention Jesus knocked up his own mom for your sins.xD Ezekiel 23.20-21/ Ephesians 6:5
Have always loved Alice Cooper! Never knew he was a Christian until now and it made me do the happy hard Rock dance 🤘 stoked on Jesus Revolution to broaden horizons.
Thank you for doing this interview. I never cared for his music, but I love and appreciate his story, and how clearly conveys the need for Jesus as Lord.
I remember when my dad played golf with him. He said he is literally one of the nicest guys he'd ever met. Forget the banging on a piano with a rubber snake. Jesus said if you come to Him weary and heavy laden, He WILL give you rest. I wanna see this guy in heaven.
This has to be one of the more genuine interviews I have seen, god bless the people who made this happen, such a powerful message that could be appreciated by almost anyone.
Absolutely loved this interview. What a lovely guy and such wonderful stories. As someone who has recently come back to God, I find it "lovely" to listen to Alice and Blackie Lawless... 2 absolute shock rockers and 2 men who have returned to Christ and their music has become meaningful as well as great.
This is so interesting to me. How is fear the beginning of wisdom? I am sincerely curious. Fear prevents us from being brave. Someone taught me recently 2 Timothy 1:7 - For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. This rings true for me, because being courageous is a much better teacher than being fearful. The opposite of fear is power, love, and a sound mind. Please let me know your thoughts on this.
Love Alice's analysis of Johnny Cash. Absolutely spot on. Everyone loves Johnny Cash. 3 generations of huge Johnny Cash fans in my family; my dad, my son, and myself. RIP Johnny Cash.
Was honestly not ever much of a fan of Alice Cooper, but this was one terrific interview....I have learned much. Thank you so much gents for sharing!!! AND SHARING OUR LORD!
I spent some time with Alice a couple of years ago, he was at our church on Sunday and then I saw his show and then we hung out backstage afterwards with him and most of the time talking about Jesus, what a great time we had , Alice is a great man
I love that he has a testimony that leads people to Christ. So many comments on here are downing the man. Shame on you ! We all have sinful pasts but look at him now! It’s a inspiration
It's a shame to see haters among us. I personally haven't read any negative comments. I know when Snoop Dog got saved, there was a lot of negativity, very little encouraging. Now I'm not even sure if the Dog is following Christ. Anyway, I'm glad to see what God is doing in Alice's life. I hope he is able to lead others to Christ as well.
He’s exactly what a Christian looks like, he very much knows what the Lord’s grace means and it shows. Fear of God, not man is what he does imo so I doubt he worries about the busy bodies who complain about him.
The critics are just Pharisees who don't know Jesus. They are same ones who killed Paul and crucified Jesus. They use the bible as a bullying club, but hell waits for them unless they repent and make Jesus their Lord and Savior!
Absolutely Love This ❤️ Haven't watched it for a few years but watching again today due to a friend's fb post about Alice. Would love to attend a seminar where Alice speaks. May God Bless Him. Thankyou Greg Laurie ❤
Amazing Pastor Greg thank you ..Thank you Alice... extremely interesting and enlightening. Praise God for you two men. You bring God's words to life and in Life. Thanks for being there for Mr Depp he is such a kind soul who I'm sure is going to have an amazing story of his own relationship with Jesus. I feel that in my heart. Keep fighting the good fight Johnny, don't let the world change your spirit 🙏
Great interview, Greg! I always loved Alice's witness for Christ; totally not what anyone might expect... AND he's not shy about it. At all. The 59:09m mark = where it's at in songwriting. He nailed it. I've been there. Spot-on. I really appreciate your pastoral instincts kicking in and bringing the interview in for a landing. I pray that God continues to use Alice in far more profound ways in the coming years. God Bless.
Alice is totally correct about drinking.. a friend of mine he was my sponsor in AA told me if you go to a barber shop every day.. eventually you’ll get a haircut.. I still remember that and I have been sober since 1987.. good advice..
stevensrspcplusmc That is a beautiful analogy about the circles you run in, places you frequent, music you listen to, etc. Moving on from an addiction, any addiction, is about changing your life. I’ve never done drugs (pot a few times but ugh 🤢, made me feel horrible. I hated that feeling). I used to drink, and got to the point that I drank every weekend, to excess. I just did it to have fun, but just stopped. I no longer had the “taste” for it once I was saved. My demon is cigarettes. I cannot shake smoking. I quit for almost 2 years, physically quit, but there wasn’t a day that went by that I didn’t want one. I used vapes, and tried to step down the nicotine content slowly. The lower the nicotine, the more emotionally unstable I became. Toward the end when I broke down and just smoked (bummed one off my SIL), I was an emotional wreck. Crying all the time, very self critical, just a hot mess. Well, I tried an anti-depressant, and that was AWEFUL. I would rather feel everything than nothing at all. I also have multiple sclerosis, so couldn’t take chantix. I don’t believe I’m destined to a life of smoking, it’s just that God hasn’t taken that from me. I come from a long line of raging alcoholics from both sides, and I could see where I would’ve been one too, because I wasn’t even thinking about it when I drank, just thinking about having fun. But, I was rambling. The barber shop reference was wonderful, and I can see how it would be life changing for someone willing to apply that advice in their day to day. Thanks for sharing! 😊
@@lucyswannsunsafespace7313 I prayed hard on the smoking thing. I gave up the world. No cable tv, no sports, no traditions of man. Threw away all Pagan articles out of my life. Trees, ornaments, halloween costumes, hellywood movies. Then, my life began to change for the good. God gave me back my life that satan took from me. After praying one day God told me to go to the glove box and throw out the pack of cigarettes, and the one in the house, and all my vapor accessories. Everything in the BFI bin. I was done. I couldn't do it without his power. He gave me the will power to achieve this, it wasn't me. Good luck in quitting. There will be a day, if you really want to quit, pray and God will help. There is no power greater than he! Blessings.
This is the best interview I think I've ever seen. Wow!! I could watch & listen to both of you for hours. Thank you Alice, for sharing you had the fear of God and then the love of Jesus. I felt the same way when I got saved. I definitely had & have the fear of God and the love of Jesus. 🙏🙏
I went to Alice Cooper concerts in the early 70's, back when School's Out for Summer was a hit. So excited to hear he is born again! Great interview. Thank you!
I caught his show last night, at 73 he's still every bit the showman he ever was, and the music sounds better than ever, and some killer guitar work. A true entertainer in every sense of the word.
Lol... Then you'll be adding the name of a demon to your prayer list. Alice Cooper is the name he took from a Ouija board session. Come on man wake up don't be so easily duped. "Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour"
@@waywardspirit7898 ____You sound like a demon filled with pride & yes some have used a ouija board in the past, once or twice out of curiosity. If you can’t see Mr.Cooper is a follower of Jesus, then wake up someday soon.
I met Alice Cooper when I was picking up a pizza in Phoenix. I approached him and said excuse me sir but you look a lot like Alice Cooper. He smiled and shook my hand. Super nice guy!
God is good and God is Love. Alices story is such a great example of the redemptive nature of Jesus Christ. There is nothing more important than knowing Jesus.
Jesus is The Word, John 1:1-5 The Word God spoke: Exodus 20:1 The Word God wrote: Deuteronomy 4:13 and The Word God made flesh John 1:14. He is our example of The Trinity. He is The Law that hung on the cross and The Law that is written in the heart. Psalms 40:7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me Hebrews 10:7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. Build up the body of Christ by 'putting on' The Lord. Cling to, dwell in the law (Ten Commandments) and testimony (Sermon on the Mount). We know His voice. His words are spirit and they are life. Hear Him. Prepare for your future and the life of your loved ones. As Paul tells us, "put on Jesus."
Great interview!! I am so glad the Lord opened my eyes. I pray for those who don't know Jesus. I can't imagine where I would be right now without him. I pray that this interview will help to awaken our brothers and sisters that are still asleep. God bless you both for the work your doing to lead others.
This was an awesome interview into the man behind Alice. After years seeing behind the curtain I found Christ too because fame and fortune doesn't buy happiness. Still playing and composing but don't want anything to do with the music biz anymore. Vincent has lead an amazing journey in life and glad he is able to share his experience, Cheers!
Please check out the YT channel dnjalion7 where the host is exposing both Laurie and Cooper. Other commenters can see they are of their Father the devil. Pray for discernment and at least look at a couple of the videos. Ask God if the host is lying cause he isn't.
Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal:'' The Lord knows those who are His,'' and ,let everyone who names the name of Christ, depart from iniquity. ''-2Timothy2:19
I walked 18 holes at a Michael Douglas celebrity golf tournament with Alice, I was part of the production company holding a crowd mic. I wasn't aware that he was a Christian back then, (18 or 19 years ago) but he took golf very seriously and was totally focused! I watched him closely but I didn't want to disturb him. I was actually a bit intrigued with him because I grew up in a Christian home and he wasn't allowed there as far as music. I heard stories about his concerts and had no interest in him. I'm sure I prayed for his soul back when we were burning records when kids came to Christ! I'm so glad to know he's serving God and sharing his love to others! I listen to everything he puts out there now! Thank you for your devotion to God and helping his children. Love you Alice❤

@@retiuup3753 I guess you are pretty stupid because you have no idea what you are talking about. You need to gain some 20/20 vision (providing you even have a bible, which I think not). Read 20 verses before and 20 verses after the verses you are quoting. It has nothing to do with what you stated. I pray the Lord opens your eyes and heart to the truth.
@@jmead2294 Don't be mad. It's not just your religion that is useless, primitive, barbaric and fucking stupid. There are more than 4,000 religions in the world all batshit crazy same as yours.
I love this testimony. Praise God for how good, and how faithful he is. I love the comment about being in the middle of the Philistine's camp. King David was there too. Living among the Philistines.
I have heard 'No More Mr. Nice Guy' in my head lately since we are all waking up in the Great Awakening. That song resonates with all of us and even the late waker uppers to this year of 2023. Either way, this is such a great blast from the past and so truthful and honest. What a super show and I loved every minute of it.
I think it’s awesome to hear a rock star 💫 talk about Jesus ❤❤❤ thank you Pastor Greg Laurie, You Rock!!! I was also lost and now I’m found. I no longer belong to myself but to JesusChrist who saved me. Looking forward to meeting you all in Heaven 😇🙏✝️
Al, what a solid testimony and what a great pastor you are talking to. I am a bassist and relate very well with your story. I was in Pheonix and my trail guide pointed you out as we rode up the hill. Then he told me he went to church with you. That when you and your music were changing things for your listeners. Love you Brother
And five minutes of watching this heretic express channel clearly shows not only is the fruit poison the tree is a cancer tree and it's only use is as a first class example of heretics at work
Servant Of God I’m not trying to be rude but who do you think you are? He’s a prodigal son!! God will judge us all someday and none of us are perfect not even you...if you don’t judge someone within five minutes you’ll notice that this is Vincent’s Testimony and I know God will judged me if I’m wrong but you are arrogant if you think anyone is past the point of being saved and your still alive so stay humble! God Bless You and have a good day! ✝️❤️🕊
As a teen seeing some of the hypocrisy of "The Establishment," this had me gravitate towards Cooper/Vincent Furnier. After so far, a decades long journey through much personal change I am so ha]y to be with God and that Alice Cooper is following Christ also. ❤🙏. I like Cooper and totally relate as well. Thank-you for this interview Alice Cooper/ Vince Fournier with Pastor Greg Laurie. As fan Shonna May says: "See you when we get home Alice. ❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏 God Bless You - Xoxo, Lolly🙋
Trusting in Christ turns your rebellion into your testimony. "What men meant for evil, God uses for good". More like a friendly conversation than an interview, nice job. Thanks
@@marcocortes9968you didnt look at the verse that way before because the verse has nothing to do with this. they are twisting it. this is the worst twisting of Christianity Ive seen in a long time.
When I was a child in like the 5th grade I asked Jesus into my heart. Unfortunately I did not understand all that He had gone through or what dying on the cross for really meant. I slipped away the summer of 7th grade. I discovered girls and marijuana and rock and roll music. One of the concerts I went to after high school was Alice Cooper. It was a great show and I had a great time. Years had gone by and my younger brother was killed by a drunk driver. I always knew God existed I just didn't know much about Him. What I thought I knew was that God had taken the person from me whom I loved the most. I do not think anyone understood how mad at God that I was. I yelled at Him, I probably called Him every hurtful thing I could think of. I blamed God and then I blamed the person. The guy lost his license for ten years and was placed on probation but got no jail time. This made me even more furious. I was drowning in hate and anger. I went to bars and got drunk and picked fights with people twice my size. No one would fight me. You see I wanted to hurt people as much as I hurt and I am not sure why. My girlfriends mother whom I had never met invited us to her church over the phone. We went to church and people were singing and praising Jesus while lifting their hands in the air. I did not understand why. In my drunken cries to the Lord I demanded that he reveal Himself to me. Obviously God was patient with me but He revealed Himself to me while at that church. He got a hold of my heart and my brain. Yes He spoke to me. Not in an audible voice but I heard Him inside of my head and inside of my heart. He told me that He was real and that I wasn't alone. I laid it down on that altar. I cried my eyes out. I wasn't alone anymore but I still did not understand it all. It did not happen all at once but years later I had come to many terms about many things and although it took me twenty years to be able to say I forgive him with the help of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit that anger and hate went away. A great weight was lifted the moment I said Lord I forgive him. In all of this time God took booze, and cigarettes away. He did amazing things that if i kept typing would be way too long to read here. He revealed Himself to me because He loves me not because I demanded He do so. No one has control over God. Because He loves me I can face tomorrow and I am still here and with His help I do face whatever tomorrows I have left. If you're here and you need Him and read this then trust me if you call upon the Lord, He will help you, you just have to be sincere. Tell Him how you feel and what you need. If you come to Him you will never be the same ever again.
Thanks for sharing this testimony. Im glad u know that God loves you too
@@vickibaker8372 those were the toughest days I have ever faced. They were tougher than what we are all facing right now. I guess I can say that because now that I have God I have hope. Not the kind of hope that the average person but the hope that only comes from God. We all need to share our testimony to show others what God has done and what he will do for anyone if they just come to Him. You're welcome and be blessed.
Wonderful testimony! Thank you for sharing! Praise God
Praise the Lord Almighty 🙏
PRAISE THE LORD!
I grew up with Alice Cooper, , I was one of those disinfrachised teens he sang to, Today I am a Child of the most High💕🙏, like him, and totally relate. I'm so happy he is following Christ ♥️See you when we get home Alice 🙏🙏
it's too bad it's a lie because the guy has demonic shows to the day.
Greg Laurie is a sell out more interested in selling books than he is in calling out sin with these famous people.
@@jorgemulgado7035 EXACTLY!
Nice comment you strike me as a lovely person. God bless.
Same here! 😊 Alice aka Vincent is one of the coolest!! and thrilled he’s born again like us!!
I will never forget the day I became a Christian. October 16th 1999. My (first) wife was openly and often cheating on me, she was alienating me against our 2 kids, my kidneys were failing and I was going to be homeless. I didn't realize it at the time but the lord was setting me up with a better life. I remember sleeping in the back of a moving truck, guitar case for my bed (very uncomfortable) and a smelly moving blanket to cover up with. Chicago in October is pretty cold. I asked lord to show me he's real. The following day, I went to work at the local grocery store stocking shelves and I look down at the floor and see a cloth bracelet laying face down so I picked it up and turned it around. It said "follow Jesus in the new millennium". That was the day I took him in my life.
This is one of the best interviews I've ever listened to. I'm not a fan of Alice Cooper's music (it's not really my style), but I have so much respect and admiration for the man that he is and the agent of Christ that he has become. He's teaching a whole group of people that would never turn on Christian radio, or go into a church. And I praise God for that.
Amen, people need someone they can relate to.
Praying for Alice Cooper, God knows his heart, and I do pray that he truly shines for Jesus in all he does. His music isn’t my style but I do respect him and wish him well in all he does.
Amen! Before I was saved the music of my heart is of course my youth, so bands like Deep Purple ( addicted to John Lord´s Hammond), Nazareth, The Who, The Band, ELO, Cream, everything with Beck and so on. When it comes to Cooper it is one song; School´s out. I still feel the freedom when leaving school´s indoctrination. 16 years later I took a lone and went to a really good Bible school. Economicly insane. The spiritual growht. Legs growing, canser disappiered. God works! God bless you on all sides. Love from Sweden.,
His latest music looks no different from the world.
@@dd41283In what way?
This is so cool. 15 years ago I quit heroin and drove 2 hours everyday to the methadone clinic in Boone, N.C. On the way I would listen to you ( Greg ) on the radio. You changed the way I thought about God and Jesus and I now am raising my 3 teenage daughters in Christ, the best way I can...with Gods help. Thank You from Johnson City, Tennessee.
Froze Moments im from NC and skiied in boone many times, congrats bud
Matthew McCurry Thank you. God bless you.👍🏼
You have a beautiful testimony too. Use it to bless other's lives. I never been in any drug substance so i do not know how it feels like, your story is also an education to all drug users out there and to ppl like me. God bless you and your family
Hagaydigi Lagauriyogo thank you, during that transition in my life God spoke to me as clear and audible as anything I’ve ever heard...one word...”Others”...And it echoed for days inside my head. He speaks to me in prayer but telling it now gives me chills and feels me with peace.
I will pray for you that the Holy Spirit will reveal God's purpose in your life. I really can discern that He has a huge calling in your life. I'm amazed by the transition happened in your life. God is a working miraculous Father. To him be the glory and praise forever!
This is without a doubt the best interviews with a rockstar I've ever witnessed substantive and he's so comfortable in his own skin tells people who he was and who he is no apologies for either. I just love this and the stories wow!
Now I understand the golf obsession in my gsi I95 no
Now I understand the golf obsession in my family.
Christians do Christian things. Alice only ever does satanic things.
Totally amazing! And THE PEOPLE he knew! Sinatra, George Burns, Elvis, Gerald Ford????
@Revelations and Visions Wow, didn't know you were GOD... I'm sure, if he knew you were The Almighty, he would've called with an apology. 🙄
Powerful testimony. My son Jason is struggling with alcohol
Please pray for him to return to Jesus. He and I were baptized together when he was 17. He knew only God could keep him from alcohol and asked Him to keep him from it at the time. Then he went to college. Now he us 46 married 2 kids great job but could lose all . Please uphold him . He has recently seen a doc for physical health. God bless you for your testimony . Jesus is King
Heavenly Father
We lift up Jason to You!!! Send Your Mighty Angels to combat the fallen angels to move out away from lying to Jason. Strengthen him. Open his spiritual eyes. So that he can turn to You with ALL of his heart soul and mind. Loosen his tongue so he can speak Your Truths for the world is hungry for it! Bless his wife, children and mom. Strengthen their Faith in You
Thank You for hearing and answering our prayers. In The Name of Yeshua
I am so happy to hear that Alice Cooper is saved..A born again Christian,🤗
He's not.
@@a.d.marshall2748 What makes you think he isn't born again???
@@anglebow8706 his satanic music his never spreading the Gospel at his concerts.
@@anglebow8706 Because his career is nothing but fearless wickedness and blasphemy. He turns the grace of God into lasciviousness. You gotta be kind of stupid and a lot lost, or a charismatic witch, to think for one second that devil is a Christian. I don't know one saved person who would believe "Alice" is a brother in Christ. They would all laugh at the thought. Alice might be deceived but is most likely a satanist church infiltrator. Either way he needs prayer and the gospel because he's as lost as any devil.
It shows that I have 4 messages but I can't see them for some reason.
I went to 2 Alice Cooper concerts back in the seventies when I was just a kid. Loved him then and still love him today. So glad to hear he is a Christian. God bless Alice!
Who Gender Bender Alice?
I'm so happy to the life of Alice Cooper, to back in the presence of God. God bless you Alice Cooper ! Jesus loves you so much 💖💖💖 !
Right on!
What a changed man!
This time he sings his Hit “ONLY WOMEN BLEED” with a cross around his neck!
He has a whike new fan base that has taken the place of his old fan base in their 70s
Now he can be a Rock Star Christian Evangelist rocking out with Marilyn Manson and other satanic singers !
Schools out for summer has risen from the dead in the hearts of God’s children !
Where there is no discernment there is no truth
Well said ! Laurie is Star struck
What a total disgrace by both
I am now a born-again Christian too, so glad to know that Alice Cooper found Christ. I've always been a huge fan! I'm 68 he75 still got it going on, Rock on my brother in Christ 🙏
Why is there no change in his life?
I was never a fan of his music, but I'm am so happy he came back HOME to JESUS ❣️🙏🙏🙏
@dd41283 there's been a huge change.
I really appreciate how he has learned not to take himself too seriously. Remembering how he came from where he was & now where he is.
I have the same testimony. Grew up in a Christian home, got out on my own, and lived literally like he'll for decades. Then I got clean and realized where I was in relation to Christ and eternity. Praise God for endless grace, mercy, and forgiveness
I'm alive today by grace of God. I've survived a stroke a blood bacteria and lymphoma cancer. I should be dead now, but Jesus saved my life being with me through my stroke my lymphoma cancer and my blood bacteria. Praise God for every day I'm alive.
God bless you, always ❣️🙏🙏🙏
AMENN!! praise God🙏❤️
This is so encouraging!! I'm 58 but in my 20's, I hung around with a rock'n' roll crowd. I've been saved for 28 years but I still pray for some of the musicians that I once knew. This is proof that the LORD can save anyone!!!
I've never been a hard rock fan.
I have prayed occasionally for Alice Cooper for years.
I am so thrilled to hear him speaking Jesus.
Growing up, I didn't care about Alice Coopers music but was Rock and Roll-Heavy Metal 😔💯. Now I Believe in Jesus 🥰 and can see Jesus in Alice Cooper 🥳💯.
Great testimony. I am also a shepherd hook Christian. A runaway that the Lord came after with a death grip on His shepherd's hook. Jesus never ditches His sheep.
God bless this man! Standing for Christ and reaching out to young people! He has taken the second chance that God has given him and used it for God’s glory! I would love to spend time with him!
As a kid, my Mom took my eldest sister to see Alice Cooper and Led Zeppelin. My Mom had seen Elvis with my Dad several times so a bit of a culture shock but they loved Alice Cooper (Sorry Zeps, she thought you were too loud), and decades later my college friend saw him out in California and she said he was one of the nicest men she ever met. Love his radio show as well. Total respect. Great interview and well done Pastor Greg!
This is the best interview I have ever seen. I am a surviver of a cult (ran away at 13), physically and mentally abused before i found Christ. At 24 I became a Christian and with the ptsd of almost being murdered I fell off and started doing drugs. He speaks me.
I’m assuming from your comment that you’re still struggling with drugs. Never give up on yourself. You still have life in you and even if it’s only hope that you have to get clean again, it’s the most formidable weapon there is. I have been there before, several times, and I will be praying for you.
Hugs sister 🤗 prayers over you and your future too
Rejoice in the fact that God has saved you many times. You are very special ❤. Ask Him to help you forgive the perp who almost took your life, but praise God who saved you. Celebrate your life. Live!
I have accepted god into my heart when I asked a beatiful Nigerian girl if I may sit on the bench next to her at my college, I asked what she was doing, she said praying. She asked if I would accept god into my heart also, I thought for a second, I truly needed him and she led me in prayer, Truly was that the establishment of the moral compass I was needing. I find shame is a tool, if one is ashamed, they prob should head in another direction. GOD BLESS YOU ❤
I’ve been a fan of Alice since I was 12 years old. Lost my older brother back then in 75 and somehow Alice seemed to understand my grief and my anger and confusion. Fast forward years later; I meet and fall in love the summer of Alice’s trash album was released. 2 years after that my youngest daughter was born under too many miraculous circumstances to type here. And she all on her own became a huge Alice fan. She went with her Daddy to see Alice in concert in Boston when she was just 9 years old. I gave up my own ticket because she just begged me to see him. She adored him. Still does all these years later. Other people would ask her why she liked him and didn’t he scare her. She said no, I can see his light. There’s so much more I could say but maybe if I ever get the chance to speak with Alice or my daughter does. We can share more. Anyway he may dress in black, and put on a “show” for the fans. But some of us lucky or blessed few can “see” his true heart and light. Thank you Alice for your great songs and music. For being there for me when I myself was a teen girl going through a very sad, difficult time in my own life. It felt like you understood. Thank you 🙏🏻 May God always bless you and your family. Much love and respect from a long time fan, an anonymous face, just a simple Mom now who also loves rock and roll and God too.
I'm only a tenth the way through this interview and I'm already finding Alice to be the most enjoyable interview I've ever seen.
Greg Laurie is great - he lets Alice talk!

Alice is the consummate professional. I've been to around a dozen of his shows throughout the past thirty years, and have NEVER been disappointed with the performance. He always throws in deep cuts alongside the popular songs, and it's never stale. Many performers could stand to learn from his work ethic.
When I was a teenager I was in love with Alice. Had every album, read a biography on him and knew he was a pastors son. This video is awesome
Me too 😀😀😀
Oh yes ❤😂
Why has not anyone done a biopic movie about Alice Cooper? It would be fascinating and could be both a testimony and a movie that would draw Rock music fans to see. No bait and switch required, just the truth of his life.
Someone call Lionsgate!!
My Lord millions of Christians are so easily duped.
Alice Cooper is not a Christian.
It would take 5 minutes of research to figure that out.
@@waywardspirit7898 You don't get. But I want you to know that I love you and will pray that God removes your judgmental spirit.
@waywardspirit7898 I'm sorry to say but Alice Cooper is a Christian. It takes time to get up on a higher level.
@@brendaellman44 Oh. Apparently you have not seen his newest commercial where his is dressed like and made up like a demon. OR, his current tour with Rob Zombie. (another Christian I suppose)
I agree it takes time to come to a fuller understanding of what it means to follow Christ but some things are just basic to common sense. When I got saved I KNEW before hand it meant to repent a TURN from my wicked ways. Not continue to make money from them
And where is his Pastor? (the "Shepard")
Don't be so easily duped.
So awesome finding out about alice being a Christian years ago.gave my life to the Lord in 1983 with greg laurie
At harvest at the age of 14.
Furyss1 TV: The Harvest Crusades didn't even start till 1990.
Yes but Greg started way before that in riverside,ca.
So many deceived by laurie and cooper! False prophets!!
What a wonderful testimony!!!!
@@growlerthunder5171 prove it.!!!!
What a joy ! God is Amazing !!! Thanks Pastor ,Alice Copper what a great ministry! 9:16
What a great interview. It showed Alice's humanity, humour, and Christ-centeredness. Greg, you are a remarkable interviewer bringing out the story of very unlikely people.
Don't be so easily duped Alice Cooper is not a Christian. What serious Born again life-altered Christian would remain a heavy metal radio station dj?
Satan is at work with this comment ⬆️
Unlike his satanic concerts with satanic people at satanic events.... The dumb in this thread is thick.
@@QueenBee-du6suI don't judge Alice. I'm in no position to. I believe what Alice says.
You must live in a glass house
He's so sharp and sober. What a great interview! God bless you, Alice!
Randy Burrill sharp and sober lol more like in that blood drinking/vampire facial lifestyle check out his latest band/supergroup Hollywood Vampires (where in the Bible does it tells us to imitate dark things and vampires again? I forget lol) wake up brothers and sisters this man is not Christian Greg and his team should do some research on whom they promote and the music he panders to us a safe even though it’s secular
I’m 52, I never really knew much of Alice cooper, heard some of the songs, I wasn’t a follower of music so much…but this interview IS AMAZINg. Praise God that you had this interview, and praise God for both of you!
Alice has a very calm yet very humorous and engaging demeanor that I really endeavor to emulate. God bless Alice Cooper! OP

This interview has to be one of the best interviews I've ever watched. God bless you Alice Cooper ( Vincent Fernier).
@@cybervoyager8668 I see what you are getting, but as far as I am concerned, God will be and is the judge of whether or not someone is a Christian. He has more proof about Alice Cooper (Vincent Fernier) than any person on Earth will ever have.
Agreed!
Cyber Voyager okay Boomer
I agree.
I don’t see what you see. Explain please.
Alice Cooper was my hero in my teens... Loved his music... Wanted to emulate him..got born again at 20 and left that world...But now my hero is connected to me through Christ. Wonderful! Thank you Jesus!
I love this story ❤️. Alice Cooper is the MOST HUMBLE person. I really respect him & his attitude. He's doing amazing things.
I loved watching this conversation!! When I was a little on the wild side at 17, my dad said I was a complete angel one year to breaking loose the following year. I remember driving with my friends in my car including my younger sister, racing all over town and blaring Alice Cooper. To be honest they are memories that I'm happy to have. I walked away from God for a few years because I was just interested in having fun and running loose. These days I'm unbelievably happy to be with God. God is my passion these days. I can't hear enough sermons and I thrive for the word of God. Right now I'm very interested in hearing the inside story of what Alice Cooper went through. After all, I listened to him so much that I can hear the music still playing in my head, that was almost 40 years ago.
Wow how super cool to find out the guy that used to play every Halloween in Detroit is now a Christian! I think you can reach so many people like this with your testimony! I too was in a very dark place in my life and now I know Jesus! People listen to my testimony because of the dark places I have been. I don't continue to live in darkness but in the light. Its because of where he has been and where he is now that gets the attention to share the Gospel. We are all sinners we all fall short and while we were still his enemies or sinners Christ died for us! I am happy to know you are saved Alice Cooper!
His music and his name hasn't changed. Check out his recent music videos.
Greatest interview ever!!!! Jesus, Alice's career and so soooo many little insights into icons of music and movies!!!! That was awesome!!! I met Alice at a BMW pro-am golf tournament back in the early 2000's and he was so kind and gracious, he talked to my kids like they were old friends!!!
Not only is Alice Cooper one of my favourite music artist but I always enjoy listening to interviews conducted with him. Intelligent humorous and enjoyable. Looking forward to Detroit Stories coming out in February.
It cannot be overstated what this rocker has met to Arizona. He wears his faith on his sleeve. He's a man of incredible integrity. Thank you Alice!
I listened 'Last Temptation' throughout the time in high school and always wondered that the lyrics sounded like a song of prodigal son to me......
It's great and wonderful to know that the Lord never left me alone even when I was so far away from him and denied him constantly.
Hallelujah!
The best interview I have ever watched. THANK GOD, thank Greg Laurie, AND thank Alice Cooper.
Such an awesome interview. I enjoy listening to Alice Cooper host on his radio show. This is one of the best interviews I've ever seen. God is good
This is one of the most clear informative, interview of any rock music icon interviewed by a pastor like Greg Laurie around. Thanks Alice & Greg. After seeing Jesus Revolution and it happened around the early 70s, I realized that the Jesus Wave across the nation,hit me in New York City. I was about 16 years old and was a long haired, rock music lover that my own church looked down on. God never abandoned me and through much up and downs in life, I’m in my late 60s now and my faith and walk has been filled with miracles and wonders. Listening to this interview, I can say that God works wonders through the least likely in man’s eyes, for His Mission. 😇
That was awesome. I’ve never really paid much attention to Alice cooper. I was more into pop in my younger years. I didn’t really listen to much rock until I started hanging out with my husband. But I remember learning from my parents that Alice Cooper had become a Christian, which made me really happy for him. So I was excited to see this interview w/ him. He seems like such a down to earth guy! I think it just proves that God makes us all individuals with a purpose. Each of us are able to reach a different crowd based on our life story and who we are... NOTHING is an accident with God. He really does use all things for the good to those who love Him and are called ☺️
Beautiful comment. We're all individuals under God, but God _is_ truth and truth is universal. The closer we are to Him, the more universal our individual experiences and messages are.
Alice Cooper was ALREADY a Christian. His father was a preacher. He just started going back to church. There's a difference.
I love Alice Cooper. But religion tricked people to believe in hell. Then they sell the only product that can save them lol. Every religion is based on fear passed down from generation to generation through indoctrination. Just look how stupid Christ would be if there's no hell or heaven. That's how absurd the idea of salvation is. There are over 4,000 religions in the world. Religion divides people. It's pure bullshit! Not to mention Jesus knocked up his own mom for your sins.xD Ezekiel 23.20-21/ Ephesians 6:5
@@retiuup3753 , your level of ignorance is impressive
@@krs2711 Ignorance of what??
Have always loved Alice Cooper! Never knew he was a Christian until now and it made me do the happy hard Rock dance 🤘 stoked on Jesus Revolution to broaden horizons.
If he has repented can’t he just change his name to biblical standards like AL
I worked with Shep his manager and Alice for 2 years while finishing College as their intern....some of the most incredible memories of my life
Thank you for doing this interview. I never cared for his music, but I love and appreciate his story, and how clearly conveys the need for Jesus as Lord.
I remember when my dad played golf with him. He said he is literally one of the nicest guys he'd ever met. Forget the banging on a piano with a rubber snake. Jesus said if you come to Him weary and heavy laden, He WILL give you rest. I wanna see this guy in heaven.
Me to!
This has to be one of the more genuine interviews I have seen, god bless the people who made this happen, such a powerful message that could be appreciated by almost anyone.
I am so happy to hear that Alice Cooper is a child of God 🥰
Absolutely loved this interview. What a lovely guy and such wonderful stories. As someone who has recently come back to God, I find it "lovely" to listen to Alice and Blackie Lawless... 2 absolute shock rockers and 2 men who have returned to Christ and their music has become meaningful as well as great.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom !
THE "LORD"? YOU MEAN YOUR DAD. YOUE DAD IS NOT "THE LORD"....LOL.
Fear is the Mind Killer. Love is the beginning and the ending of wisdom.
Idiot
This is so interesting to me. How is fear the beginning of wisdom? I am sincerely curious. Fear prevents us from being brave. Someone taught me recently 2 Timothy 1:7 - For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. This rings true for me, because being courageous is a much better teacher than being fearful. The opposite of fear is power, love, and a sound mind. Please let me know your thoughts on this.
@@dansoelberg As a kitten drinks it's mother's milk it will later graduate to meat . Seek & u shall find in God's word. Peace !
Love Alice's analysis of Johnny Cash. Absolutely spot on. Everyone loves Johnny Cash. 3 generations of huge Johnny Cash fans in my family; my dad, my son, and myself. RIP Johnny Cash.
Praise God. I heard his songs in the 70's and 80;s but never listened much to it. I'm a Christian and concentrated on the hymns and praise songs.
Such a great interview Pastor Greg and Alice! I respect you both so much in the Lord. Thank you!
Was honestly not ever much of a fan of Alice Cooper, but this was one terrific interview....I have learned much. Thank you so much gents for sharing!!!
AND SHARING OUR LORD!
I spent some time with Alice a couple of years ago, he was at our church on Sunday and then I saw his show and then we hung out backstage afterwards with him and most of the time talking about Jesus, what a great time we had , Alice is a great man
I love that he has a testimony that leads people to Christ. So many comments on here are downing the man. Shame on you ! We all have sinful pasts but look at him now! It’s a inspiration
It's a shame to see haters among us. I personally haven't read any negative comments. I know when Snoop Dog got saved, there was a lot of negativity, very little encouraging. Now I'm not even sure if the Dog is following Christ. Anyway, I'm glad to see what God is doing in Alice's life. I hope he is able to lead others to Christ as well.
He’s exactly what a Christian looks like, he very much knows what the Lord’s grace means and it shows. Fear of God, not man is what he does imo so I doubt he worries about the busy bodies who complain about him.
I read a lot of positive scriptures
The critics are just Pharisees who don't know Jesus. They are same ones who killed Paul and crucified Jesus. They use the bible as a bullying club, but hell waits for them unless they repent and make Jesus their Lord and Savior!
Guess it doesn’t bother you all that he’s still doing the same kind of concerts w/the same music and the same look to this very day.
Absolutely Love This ❤️ Haven't watched it for a few years but watching again today due to a friend's fb post about Alice. Would love to attend a seminar where Alice speaks. May God Bless Him. Thankyou Greg Laurie ❤
Amazing Pastor Greg thank you ..Thank you Alice... extremely interesting and enlightening. Praise God for you two men. You bring God's words to life and in Life. Thanks for being there for Mr Depp he is such a kind soul who I'm sure is going to have an amazing story of his own relationship with Jesus. I feel that in my heart. Keep fighting the good fight Johnny, don't let the world change your spirit 🙏
Great interview, Greg! I always loved Alice's witness for Christ; totally not what anyone might expect... AND he's not shy about it. At all. The 59:09m mark = where it's at in songwriting. He nailed it. I've been there. Spot-on. I really appreciate your pastoral instincts kicking in and bringing the interview in for a landing. I pray that God continues to use Alice in far more profound ways in the coming years. God Bless.
His music and his name haven't changed. Check out his recent music videos.
Alice is totally correct about drinking.. a friend of mine he was my sponsor in AA told me if you go to a barber shop every day.. eventually you’ll get a haircut.. I still remember that and I have been sober since 1987.. good advice..
stevensrspcplusmc That is a beautiful analogy about the circles you run in, places you frequent, music you listen to, etc. Moving on from an addiction, any addiction, is about changing your life. I’ve never done drugs (pot a few times but ugh 🤢, made me feel horrible. I hated that feeling). I used to drink, and got to the point that I drank every weekend, to excess. I just did it to have fun, but just stopped. I no longer had the “taste” for it once I was saved. My demon is cigarettes. I cannot shake smoking. I quit for almost 2 years, physically quit, but there wasn’t a day that went by that I didn’t want one. I used vapes, and tried to step down the nicotine content slowly. The lower the nicotine, the more emotionally unstable I became. Toward the end when I broke down and just smoked (bummed one off my SIL), I was an emotional wreck. Crying all the time, very self critical, just a hot mess. Well, I tried an anti-depressant, and that was AWEFUL. I would rather feel everything than nothing at all. I also have multiple sclerosis, so couldn’t take chantix. I don’t believe I’m destined to a life of smoking, it’s just that God hasn’t taken that from me. I come from a long line of raging alcoholics from both sides, and I could see where I would’ve been one too, because I wasn’t even thinking about it when I drank, just thinking about having fun.
But, I was rambling. The barber shop reference was wonderful, and I can see how it would be life changing for someone willing to apply that advice in their day to day. Thanks for sharing! 😊
@@lucyswannsunsafespace7313 I prayed hard on the smoking thing. I gave up the world. No cable tv, no sports, no traditions of man. Threw away all Pagan articles out of my life. Trees, ornaments, halloween costumes, hellywood movies. Then, my life began to change for the good. God gave me back my life that satan took from me. After praying one day God told me to go to the glove box and throw out the pack of cigarettes, and the one in the house, and all my vapor accessories. Everything in the BFI bin. I was done. I couldn't do it without his power. He gave me the will power to achieve this, it wasn't me. Good luck in quitting. There will be a day, if you really want to quit, pray and God will help. There is no power greater than he! Blessings.
Not an alcoholic but, I find the analogy odd.
This is the best interview I think I've ever seen. Wow!! I could watch & listen to both of you for hours. Thank you Alice, for sharing you had the fear of God and then the love of Jesus. I felt the same way when I got saved. I definitely had & have the fear of God and the love of Jesus. 🙏🙏
What a great interview... so sincere and up front... really appreciate this, thank you Alice.
I always loved Alice Cooper for his music and his humanity. God has blessed him. Thank you for allowing us teens to be ourselves. It was a great time
Loved this interview. Very affirming. I am very impressed with Pastor's Greg knowledge of rock music. Very cool!
So glad Alice Cooper is a brother in Christ! 🙏 Enjoyed going to his concert in the early 90s, great show!!!!
Great interview! Pastor Laurie you were so kind and respectful to AC. Thank you for allowing him to give his testimony!
I went to Alice Cooper concerts in the early 70's, back when School's Out for Summer was a hit. So excited to hear he is born again! Great interview. Thank you!
Im not to sure of that ,,,
@@theodoreritola7641 well your not too sure of anything, are you…?
How does his latest music glorify God and show holiness?
I caught his show last night, at 73 he's still every bit the showman he ever was, and the music sounds better than ever, and some killer guitar work. A true entertainer in every sense of the word.
He was my idol as a kid. I'm 62 now saw him in concert 4 years ago. They were phenomenal live
He's right about the mediocrity that corporate has shoved down the public's throats--the dumbing down of musical standards.
Most of today’s young people don’t even listen to this; it’s the X’ers and Boomers, you know, folks in their 30’s to 70’s!
Absolutely blown away ! God is so good! I never thought I’d be adding Alice to my prayer list! God bless and keep him
Lol... Then you'll be adding the name of a demon to your prayer list.
Alice Cooper is the name he took from a Ouija board session.
Come on man wake up don't be so easily duped.
"Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour"
@@waywardspirit7898 ____You sound like a demon filled with pride & yes some have used a ouija board in the past, once or twice out of curiosity. If you can’t see Mr.Cooper is a follower of Jesus, then wake up someday soon.
Alice, I saw you in Milwaukee in '73. I gave my daughter today two tickets for your concert in Marseille for her birthday...46 years later.
You a Christian? Please check out the YT channel dnjalion7, the host exposes both Laurie and Cooper on his latest videos.
I met Alice Cooper when I was picking up a pizza in Phoenix. I approached him and said excuse me sir but you look a lot like Alice Cooper. He smiled and shook my hand. Super nice guy!
Awesome ✌️
God is good and God is Love. Alices story is such a great example of the redemptive nature of Jesus Christ. There is nothing more important than knowing Jesus.
Jesus is The Word, John 1:1-5
The Word God spoke: Exodus 20:1
The Word God wrote: Deuteronomy 4:13
and The Word God made flesh John 1:14. He is our example of The Trinity. He is The Law that hung on the cross and The Law that is written in the heart.
Psalms 40:7
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me
Hebrews 10:7
Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
Build up the body of Christ by 'putting on' The Lord. Cling to, dwell in the law (Ten Commandments) and testimony (Sermon on the Mount). We know His voice.
His words are spirit and they are life. Hear Him. Prepare for your future and the life of your loved ones. As Paul tells us, "put on Jesus."
Great interview!! I am so glad the Lord opened my eyes. I pray for those who don't know Jesus. I can't imagine where I would be right now without him. I pray that this interview will help to awaken our brothers and sisters that are still asleep. God bless you both for the work your doing to lead others.
Carmalon 1971 .let our Lord judge him ! Just keep him in prayers. I'll keep you in my prayers too. Love you sir !!!
Are you forbidding people to use discernement and righteous judgement
This was an awesome interview into the man behind Alice. After years seeing behind the curtain I found Christ too because fame and fortune doesn't buy happiness. Still playing and composing but don't want anything to do with the music biz anymore. Vincent has lead an amazing journey in life and glad he is able to share his experience, Cheers!
His impersonations are spot on! Cooper was my first concert and still Love him! God bless u Alice, never change!
Please check out the YT channel dnjalion7 where the host is exposing both Laurie and Cooper. Other commenters can see they are of their Father the devil. Pray for discernment and at least look at a couple of the videos. Ask God if the host is lying cause he isn't.
Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal:'' The Lord knows those who are His,'' and ,let everyone who names the name of Christ, depart from iniquity. ''-2Timothy2:19
Randi Ross As Cooper did... 37 years sober.
@@kevinschaefer3945 and yet he continued to write lrycs like "Cold Ethyl." I really haven't even scratched the surface.
Alice Cooper is a fascinating person, so glad he came home
Me too!!! What a cool guy. Awesome musician🎸🎸 I've been rocking out to Alice Copper since I was a baby
Me too ✋
Alice..hasn't given anything...he still ROCKS with satan...you can't have both...change my mind
Amen. What a great testimony for young people to hear.
@@Brian-isatree4yhvh True!
I walked 18 holes at a Michael Douglas celebrity golf tournament with Alice, I was part of the production company holding a crowd mic. I wasn't aware that he was a Christian back then, (18 or 19 years ago) but he took golf very seriously and was totally focused! I watched him closely but I didn't want to disturb him. I was actually a bit intrigued with him because I grew up in a Christian home and he wasn't allowed there as far as music. I heard stories about his concerts and had no interest in him. I'm sure I prayed for his soul back when we were burning records when kids came to Christ! I'm so glad to know he's serving God and sharing his love to others! I listen to everything he puts out there now! Thank you for your devotion to God and helping his children. Love you Alice❤
I'm so impressed with Pastor Laurie's knowledge of Rock-n-Roll artists and surprised that he's such a huge fan of rock and roll music. Cool!!!
Glad to have you as a brother in Christ Jesus.
Religion tricked people to believe in hell. Then they sell the only product that can save them lol. Every religion is based on fear passed down from generation to generation through indoctrination. Just look how stupid Christ would be if there's no hell or heaven. That's how absurd the idea of salvation is. There are over 4,000 religions in the world. Religion divides people. It's pure bullshit! Not to mention Jesus knocked up his own mom for your sins.xD Ezekiel 23.20-21/ Ephesians 6:5
You should let everyone in on the real religion
@@retiuup3753 I guess you are pretty stupid because you have no idea what you are talking about. You need to gain some 20/20 vision (providing you even have a bible, which I think not). Read 20 verses before and 20 verses after the verses you are quoting. It has nothing to do with what you stated. I pray the Lord opens your eyes and heart to the truth.
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 Jesus offers everyone to come to Him.
Believe and He will show you.
@@jmead2294 Don't be mad. It's not just your religion that is useless, primitive, barbaric and fucking stupid. There are more than 4,000 religions in the world all batshit crazy same as yours.
I love this testimony. Praise God for how good, and how faithful he is.
I love the comment about being in the middle of the Philistine's camp. King David was there too. Living among the Philistines.
Best line in the entire interview. "If you want what the world has to offer you, that's all you're going to get." (19:30)
An amazing testimony, and one of my all time heroes too. Well worth waiting for. Thank you for this amazing interview. God bless from the UK.
I have heard 'No More Mr. Nice Guy' in my head lately since we are all waking up in the Great Awakening. That song resonates with all of us and even the late waker uppers to this year of 2023. Either way, this is such a great blast from the past and so truthful and honest. What a super show and I loved every minute of it.
What a great interview! Could relate to so much Alice was saying.
I think it’s awesome to hear a rock star 💫 talk about Jesus ❤❤❤ thank you Pastor Greg Laurie, You Rock!!! I was also lost and now I’m found. I no longer belong to myself but to JesusChrist who saved me. Looking forward to meeting you all in Heaven 😇🙏✝️
Al, what a solid testimony and what a great pastor you are talking to. I am a bassist and relate very well with your story. I was in Pheonix and my trail guide pointed you out as we rode up the hill. Then he told me he went to church with you. That when you and your music were changing things for your listeners. Love you Brother
What an amazing interview. So inspiring to me as a musician and follower of Christ.🙏
"You will know them by their fruits."
AMEN IN JESUS NAME
Strawberries and Grapes. Yum yum yum
And five minutes of watching this heretic express channel clearly shows not only is the fruit poison the tree is a cancer tree and it's only use is as a first class example of heretics at work
Servant Of God I’m not trying to be rude but who do you think you are? He’s a prodigal son!! God will judge us all someday and none of us are perfect not even you...if you don’t judge someone within five minutes you’ll notice that this is Vincent’s Testimony and I know God will judged me if I’m wrong but you are arrogant if you think anyone is past the point of being saved and your still alive so stay humble! God Bless You and have a good day! ✝️❤️🕊
@@apersonfoundinyeshua529 Yeah. You have to be a prodigal to get to the point where you stop trying to judge other people’s salvation for yourself.
To think that some people looked down on him because he was (and still is) a rockstar. He is a very, very intelligent man.
As a teen seeing some of the hypocrisy of "The Establishment," this had me gravitate towards Cooper/Vincent Furnier. After so far, a decades long journey through much personal change I am so ha]y to be with God and that Alice Cooper is following Christ also. ❤🙏. I like Cooper and totally relate as well. Thank-you for this interview Alice Cooper/ Vince Fournier with Pastor Greg Laurie. As fan Shonna May says: "See you when we get home Alice. ❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏 God Bless You - Xoxo, Lolly🙋
THANKYOU both guys for this. this amazingly inspiring and almost hard to believe but in an awesome way. love you both!!!
Trusting in Christ turns your rebellion into your testimony. "What men meant for evil, God uses for good".
More like a friendly conversation than an interview, nice job. Thanks
I didn’t think of the verse that way before. Thank you for sharing, May God keep blessing you through Jesus Christ
@@marcocortes9968you didnt look at the verse that way before because the verse has nothing to do with this. they are twisting it. this is the worst twisting of Christianity Ive seen in a long time.
@@leesadoe2440 The verse says what it says. Alice cooper is the real deal. So is the Holy Bible.
I can sooooo relate!!
