The Petra Zone

My wife and I attended and we had a good time.

I haven't received my CDs yet but I'm sure they will get here soon.

Just not a Petra song ..Maybe it'll grow on me.

I use a lot of Petra lyrics as a core for many of my youth lessons. Most of the teens don't care for Petra musically but they respond to the messages I pull out of the lyrics. By far the most frequent I use is during "alter call" times is Just Reach Out. "You say you've walked a thousand steps away ...

I got a chance to talk to Bob and John after the Farewell Show in Youngstown, Ohio. I told John how much Petra meant to me growing up and how their music kept me in line with my faith. John stood up and gave me a hug and that blew me away. Bob in is down to earth manner said "Thanks Buddy and squeez...

I have been seeking a Youth Pastor position since the begining of the year. I have had many phone interviews and a few face to face. I have another this coming weekend that I really feel is the one but I have felt that before. I know God's will will be done so I am not asking for prayers to get the ...

I still think Petra would be touring today if they did something like Newsong does with WinterJam and it is a great ministry on top of that. I would not have even thought of going to a Newsong concert or even listening to them but once I was exposed to them at WinterJam, I really began to enjoy them...

So, I started looking for another position in August. I've had a couple of interviews and was pretty close to getting a pos...

As my daughter says ...

My Youth mock me when I bring up Petra.

After the concert, he invited everyone to a smaller room at the conference center for a listening party of his new cd coming out on Tuesday. If you like Tob...

This past weekend, I attended Winter Jam. For those not familar with Winter Jam, it is hosted by New Song and they bring along with them some of the newer acts out there and then a big time act or two. This year, Hawk Nelson, Steven Curtis Chapman and Jeremy Camp are in the tour with New Song. There...

I bought Unfit for Swine on Ebay a few months back and have been listening to it in the van for a while now. The other day, I hear my 3 year old son singing during "God is too Big." I swear that he was singing "God is Stupid" but I wasn't sure so when we got where we were going, I asked him to sing ...
