Jesus Freak Redux

Marc O'Hara, one of the truly old guys from the Sixties turned me on to Terry Fisher's blog. Terry was one of the originals in the Jesus House scene that led the rock and roll revolution among the newly born again Boomers. http://jesuspeoplethenextgeneration.blogspot.com/

Marc even sang at my installation service at CHPC in 1973.

Karen and I were fortunate enough to stumble into the Jesus Movement in the house of a defrocked Presbyterian Minister after we had gotten the "Left Foot of Fellowship" from our Baptist Church. Afterwards we met Marc and the gang and heard Terry sing the new songs of Zion in the Mt. Healthy area of Cincinnati.

Terry and I reconnected at College Hill Presbyterian Church where he was a vital part of our staff and there he met the love of his life. It is fun to reflect on the various and different paths God leads each of us as we follow the Spirit from town to town and church to church.

Terry is still one of the most creative and envelope pushing guys in the church and has great insights about things spiritual and relational. His wife Pam is perhaps even more creative, if that is possible, and the two make innovation look easy.

I'm always glad to pass on information.

I had not heard from Terry since he moved to Pinecastle Methodist Church, so it was great to see he and his family are doing well.

It's a tribute to Terry as a parent that his daughter shares the blog with him. She seems to be remarkable like her Mom & Dad.

As always, great to hear from you Gary. I enjoy your comments and take them to heart.
