John Schlitt: The rock'n'roll grandfather showing there's life after Petra

Comment:
John Schlitt was in our city, but for some reason I missed his Petra concert. I actually spent a lot of time listening to his voice on the many Petra songs that became my favourites when I was barely a teenager. I'm 29 today, but I sill regard him as one of the most real Christian artists ever and the lyrics of Petra songs (delivered with piercing conviction by John Schlitt) always seem to flash across my mind at very important moments in my life. I can't seem to remember a time ever when Petra music or lyrics influenced me in a negative or ungodly manner. Today I'm still actively serving God through the youth group, not because of Petra or John Schlitt, but because of Jesus, but during those years when i was just starting to turn away from the ungodly music and ungodly staff that I had started to experiment with, Petra was a great encouragement for me to try to show the "marks of the cross" in my life. "Willing to suffer the loss for the marks of the cross" There was a time when I even dared to suffer the loss of Petra for the sake of the cross. I pray that God will continue to bless John Schlitt and his family and open more doors of ministry for him and that his life will continue to be an incredible testimony that breaks every generational barrier today.
