Larry made Jesus real to me
(Preview)
I began listening to Larry's music during a very turbulent time in my life. Although I was a Christian, I wasn't living like one because church was church, and the reality of how Jesus would have viewed the world today was sorely missing. Long before we started asking "What Would Jesus Do"...

Larry, You were the first in Contemporary Christian Music. Your songs never pussyfooted, danced around issues, soft-shoed, or led anyone down a primrose path. You set the standard as to how contemporary gospel ought to sound, and no one made the same statements quite as boldly as you. And they rock...
