Just did something that I thought I would never do - invited Petra to be our BTJ podcast.
I grew up listening to Petra and am now motivated to break out the old songs!
I'm going to play some 1970s Petra music in a future podcast that I am CERTAIN no one has heard before.
@sinbach oh I've heard it and it's still in my playlist! "Lucas McGraw what's come over you?" "Come and join us in the sunlight"
@sinbach Since you have ties in Sweden... how about Ulf Christiansan and Jerusalem? One of my favorite bands as well. Saw them at Agape Fest in Greenville Illinois, early 80's. Been a fan ever since
@Toddkapper no, I do not know them, but I did work with Evie Karlson - a famous Norwegian Christian singer from the 80s - for several years when she and her husband helped run BTJ in the US.
@Toddkapper that is sooo funny because my parents were just the opposite! they were not Christian, but they STILL believed that hard rock (or anything that sounded like it) was the devils music. So they felt that Christian rock was EVEN worse. I was NOT allowed to listen to it, so I had to listen in secret.
