So Long Larry
(Preview)
My sympathies go out to Larry's family. I am not a Christian, but enjoyed listening to his music. In one of his letters, the apostle Paul said that non-Christians will know and recognize Christians by their love for one another. In this day and age when so much of Christianity seems to non-Christians l...

Larry Norman
(Preview)
Larry Norman had a lot of guts...I remember the rejection he received at the hands of the established Church in the late 1960's becuase of his music. Misunderstood by the Christian masses; thoroughly understood by the underground Church...--JB

What a gathering! Perhaps 500 (?) of us poured into a church in Salem this morning to pay our respects to Larry. As we entered we were handed 'circus programs' (instead of a boring pamphlet) that read: Larry Norman Presents: A Going Away Party. It was a gathering of friends, family and fans alike. As peo...

To the Norman Family: Our prayers are with you during this time, for we know that you will sorely miss your brother, Larry.

Reflections on A Life

Although I have fallen away from God; the joy, art, message, kindness, humility, and peace that Larry Norman's music provides gives me hope that someday the world will be a better place. He left this world to be with the Lord but he left a message of joy and hope, for all us to share. The sheer art of each...

Maybe 25 years ago, I saw Larry in concert at the Playhouse theatre in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. It was one of the most powerful moments in my life. Years later, I strayed from Christian life and have led an empty life full of sin. Today I learned of Larry's passing...and am left with his music and his me...

Larry was my first look at Christian music and to this day some 20 years later, he still remains the mark by which I judge all music calling its self Christian. Larry pulled no punches with his words, and that is a strong reproach to the church and Christians today. Larry - you will be missed. "Don't...

Larry's Influence on my Life

When I bought my first stereo back in the mid 70's I was so excited to get it all hooked up. When I finally did, I began to scan for a radio station and the very first thing to come across it and fill my room was "UFO" by Larry Norman. I was a Christian, but I had no idea that Christian music like thi...
