Wow

great album what a voice

Awesome.... ❤❤❤❤❤

I am grateful to say that I am a born again Christian and have been since I was 19.......and praise be to God almighty for this wonderful popcorn testimony of how God just miraculously came through!!!! when we place our trust in him he will always even when it seems impossible reward our trust according to his own perfect will!!!! however folks if you don’t know Christ as your savior then it burdens my soul to think that you are headed for a terrible place called Hell where the Bible says the fire is never quenched and the worm dies not! Folks you are not promised tomorrow! If you want to know how to be saved from this horrible reality then please by all means don’t hesitate to comment right back so I can lead you to the savior! 2 Corinthians 6:2 clearly states “now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation!” And Hebrews 3:15 clearly states, “Today if you hear his voice don’t harden your hearts! It is not me but the Holy Spirit that I pray reveals to you the truth of his precious gospel......John 3:16 says for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes on him will not perish but have everlasting life! V 17 says then V 18 says whoever believes on the son is not condemned but whoever does not believe on the son is condemned already because he has not believed on the son whom God has sent! Also Acts 16:30-31 what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house I am not threatening anyone but just warning them what will happen if they reject this precious gift of eternal life! Christ died a horrible criminals death! He was beaten brutally mocked spit upon and endured countless hours of torture pain for all of our sins! Ppl go to hell because they reject that pardon for their sins! And Jesus is saying to them in Matthew 25:41 depart from me you cursed into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels! Hell was only prepared for Satan and his angels! It is not God who threatens anyone it is the craziness of rejecting the free pardon of salvation! It’s like if you’re in court you’ve committed a crime say you murdered someone! Now if you say to that Judge hey I know I’ve done a terrible thing of murdering that person but I hear you’re a good judge and so I know you’ll be fair to me...... the judge is going to reply well yes you’re right about one thing I am a good judge and because I’m a good judge I’m going to see to it that you’re punished and that justice is served! Well then all of a sudden someone you don’t even know comes forward and says you know what I know he’s committed the crime he’s committed and he deserves to go to jail but I really don’t want to see him go to prison so I’ll just go to prison for him so he can go free! So if you accepted that offer you’d be free to leave the courtroom but if you didn’t well you’d be crazy and go to prison yourself! Well that’s exactly how it was 2,000 years ago! He is God in human flesh and he came to this earth lived a perfect sinless life and even though he knew that we had sinned and because of our sins deserved to die miserably but he said no I don’t want to see them suffer so I will go and take their punishment for them! Even though he did absolutely nothing wrong still he chose to take the punishment for our sins so we can be set free from the power bondages and consequences of our disobedience to God! Romans 5:8 says For God commends his love toward us that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us! 1 John 2:2 says he was made to be the propitiation for our sins! And not just for our sins but the sins of the whole world! 2 Corinthians 5:21 He who knew no sin became Sin for us that we would be made his righteousness! The truth is if you had to get to Heaven by your own effort then you cannot do it! Because Romans 3:10 says there is not one that does good! No Not One! Romans 3:23 says For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God! Romans 6:23 says For the wages of sin is death! But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our lord! But the good news is Romans 10:9 If we confess with our mouth and believes in our hearts that Christ died for our sins then was raised from the dead we will be saved! V 10 For it’s with the heart we believe and it’s with the mouth confession is made unto salvation! God gave us 10 commandments to follow and we’ve broken every one of them! And because God is a good God he cannot allow our disobedience to him to go unpunished! Well then like I just mentioned above his son Jesus stepped forward and said no I don’t want to see them punished so I will take their punishment for them! And also like I said he died a terrible substitute criminal’s death for us on a cross so now all we have to do is accept that payment for our sins and we can escape the terrible wrath of God that is to fall on them who do not accept this atonement that was sacrificed for our sins! Praise the lord Romans 10:13 says Whoever calls on the name of the lord shall be saved! And 1 Peter 1:4 you’re an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you! Christ clearly said in John 14:6 I am the way the truth and the life and no one comes to the father but through me! Acts 4:12 clearly states that there is no other name given unto Heaven or earth by which we must be saved as there is salvation in no other! Jesus clearly states that there is clearly only one way to Salvation and it’s him that’s it! There is no other way! God Bless everyone who reads!

Our prayers still go out to you Kerry. We all love you, and truly care about you

Sickness is not Gods Will for his people. Kerry, I recommend that your read up on how to appropriate what Jesus has already done at the cross.

Dan Huff on guitar. One of the most excellent start to finish Christian rock records of the 80's. One music magazine said "All the passion of U2. The savvy rhythm of Steely Dan, and vocals that surpass Steve Perry." I agree. I heard they were huge in Europe

I bet he plays in heaven! How humbling to not being bitter after not being able to use his outstanding talent. God will bless that!

Love Tommy Funderburk's voice. I also love this album. Great band and awesome music.

Praise the Lord. You're still here. Thank you for all the wonderful music. I've had two stokes this past year. God is good.

one of the best songs, by one of the all-time top male vocalists

This song has still a strong messages!!

I bought the cassette of this album in a Christian book store, back in the day. Timeless and Epic!!!

It's a pleasure to hear Kerry discuss his journey. Thankful he has shared his gifts with the world.

Kerry I had a stroke almost , maybe two years ago while I was at work , my speach ok but I noticed my left arm went limp and I tried to get the feeling back I got it back. Then a week later on my way home I was singing along with familiar songs on the radio and noticed I was slurring my words and my left arm went limp again! So I stayed calm because I another few minutes to get home here in LA. I woke my my wife up and told her what was going on and she knew my speech was not right and gotten me to hospital my wife was really scared how ever I wasnt! I knew I hadnt been living right but I also knew as well to start praying and asking God too forgive me! Come too find out I had clogged arteries on both sides of my throat ! I am a guitar player as well but you are absolutely right the music does not matter! What matters is where your heart and soul is at! I just want you to know you where one of those guys that hand an influence on my guitar playing and song writing! Always and forever! God bless you my friend and distant brother!

Glad to hear Kerry recovered. What a blessing his music has been over the years. I met the guy who helped Kerry find Christ when they toured together - his band opened for Kansas and Jeff was witnessing to Kansas backstage & Kerry especially. When we live out our Faith in Jesus look what miracles & adventures happen ! That was Louusiana based Jeff Polard btw.

Man this really brings me back in time,,

Love you Kerry! Thank you for inspiring me to play!

Tragic that this is still relevant!

Amazing👍👍👏👏🙌🙌⚡️⚡️

Kerry Livgren; What a "Class Act"!

Thankful God gave him a stroke?Odd!Love his music in general!

Such Passion!

I wore this cassette out. I’d love to have a digital version or at least a CD.

God bless you brother!! I’ll set down in heaven with u one day!!!

Great song! I was hooked when I first heard it on KSBJ in 1984. Love the passion in Funderburk's vocals, electronic drums, synth arpeggios and chords, syncopated bass…

Good song!

Kerry is the first Christian rocker... when he does go to heaven it'll be because God needed some better music up there.. Leftoverture is the best album ever recorded..

Was this the only album by this band? Are these albums on CD ?

I'm not trying to stir up hate, but I'm pretty sure everyone praying to Jesus had nothing to do with his recovery. Some people survive and some don't, simple as that. Love his music and guitar playing!

I met his daughter at The American Red Cross Kansas Capital Area Chapter in 1996 and had the pleasure of telling her how much I love The Wall. Which Kerry wrote. I was in Topeka for 11 years from my home in Miami. I was a patient at Menningers . I know because of people like Kerry that Jesus is all I need. Psychistry is bad . Causes chronicity of distress . Sparks of the Tempest tells about all that. The Wall is to me about when I marry Michael at 59. After years of struggle with so called mental illness which was really only misunderstood scary metaphor I now am breaking through the Travesty of the mental health psychiatry and police fascist system and helping others do the same. I even worked at creepy Tooeka State Hospital in like 96 or 97. As creepy then as it was in 1897. I'm free at last. I tore down that wall Mr. Livgren and your song helped . God bless you and thanks. I also love Coloring Song you may have written that too.

god bless you so happy u doing better I had a stroke in 2008 am good but it was hard but God is good

Woke up this morning with this song on my mind. Great song and album! Simple and catchy and of course very 80's sounding (which I happen to still be digging).

my buddy kerry love ya brother.

I love the Front! Listening to them since 1984.

Really odd that he blames God for the stroke...or credits him for it.

I would kill for kerry to debate neal peart and expose rush for what they really are

Truly humble, gifted man of God. God bless you, Kerry.

Tommy Funderburk from David Foster's band AIRPLAY.

Kerry is such a sweet guy, bless his heart! She is a most blessed wife to have him, and he is blessed to have her.

Kerry was a genius. Then he had a stroke. I have never heard of a "former genius." Kerry Livgren will be a genius until the day he dies.

what Church is that at

PODEROSO.

PERFECTO PARA MI LA VERDAD NUNCA LO HABÍA ESCUCHADO.

GOOD LUCK KERRY, LOV U BRO.

Taking me down memory lane! Was a huge fan of Allies, Prodigal, Mylon LeFevre & BH, David and the Giants, Petra and the list goes on and on. The Front was right there with the best of them, actually bought two copies back in the day and wore them out before the invention of the Ion turn table, so it's awesome to hear it without the hiss and pops for a change! Thanks!

Where have we gone as a prople? takes a song from the 80s to sum up the sheer madness and lack of love for God's most precious

One of the best songs- ever.

Kerry knows and accepts that it is all part of His plan. I know how he feels. I lost the ability to play guitar because of a hand injury. My life changed after that accident. I am so very grateful for what I Do have now that I can't believe I took all the other things in my life for granted. For all you naysayers out there that say religion is sad; you have yet to experience His overwhelming power to transform your life. Peace and love...

and they might choose to let it go* thank you for this =)
