Thus Ted Nugent's creativity comes from God and so his music is God's it just isnt quite tuned in properly. I heard Stevie Ray Vaughn's brother describe Stevie's gift that way. "It was like a radio, you just had to tune it in and the music just flowed out". I think there is something in this analogy. Music only comes from God we just need to be on the right channel.

He's Lord over Madonna and Bruce and MercyMe and us. There's a particular person in my life who thinks that anything "worldly" has no place in church but I'm afraid she also feels that Jesus has little to do with the world outside of church. Nothing escapes the Light. I love that and I love CrossPoint. You go, Frank. Jesus is Lord. He’s Lord over Madonna and Bruce and MercyMe and us.
