Awesomeness at its Best. Fueled by so music Love and so much Passion for people to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ. God has confirmed it over and over again after all these years. Thank you so much for posting. Blessings everyone!

[@firebirdone]

Thank you for sharing AND the time markers!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@ricktilden2075]

This band is special. Started listening to them at 12. Got away from faith for awhile due to seeing things most people shouldn't and doing things most people wouldn't...combat, abusive dad . I thought God hated me, I felt shame and guilt. I was lost for a long time. Spent 10 months hospitalized with some major life threatening conditions... I was broken physically and spiritually. I wanted to die. Constantly in pain On January 16th I reached out to Christ,I was in a rehab facility, alone sobbing I admitted to God I'm weak, I've sinned and I needed him. It sounds cliche but my entire life turned around and I'm on the right path I recently became reborn and an getting re baptized Thank you stryper for help bring me back

[@AviationFreak1]

Awesome story!

I get to see them at the end of this month at the age of 47. I have longed for this moment since I was 13 years old. Whenever what else was listening to mainstream music? I was listening to this and white cross.

Michael doesn't look like he ages at all, many singers don't sound like they used to but not this guy. To say he made a deal with the Devil is most likely out of the question, anyway as usual they sound pretty freaking good..

Oz Fox is/ was always listed as lead guitarist, but Michael Sweet can shred too n plays just as many leads as Oz.. What a great, talented band!.. These guys inspired/ encouraged me beyond words when I was 18 n beyond as a new, born again Christian.. Stryper, Saint, Bloodgood, Barren Cross- the Big Four.. Rez Band, honorable mention*

Thanks for posting this. I met oz and robert many years ago and i was dumb enough to ask oz why he isnt in a bigger band. I think that was my terminology. He just told me this is the band he is meant for.

[@jfo3000]

He gave you the right answer. Oz, Robert and Michael are an amazing force together. Playing together off and on since middle school. They all three are brothers now.

Seeing them in Seattle 5/30/23. I would have never thought that Stryper would be the ones from this era that are carrying the metal torch in 2023. They have become better with time.

[@AviationFreak1]

Same, maybe it’ll be different when they start the ground run next month

[@TheAztec010]

The should have just labeled this The Calling On You Again Tour 🙅🏽‍♂️

[@marcocaracciol0]

They should play The way, the truth, the life, Rise to the call, Ashes to ashes, See no evil... hear no evil

[@chrismoody9855]

Yeah I agree, I'm going to see them beginning of next month. So hopefully they'll have more off of Battle.

[@jasonlapasinskas5302]

Playing the new stuff doesn’t make them money. Unfortunately they have to play the hits, that’s what brings the people. For the hardcore fan that sucks. People that are going to shows are wanting to hear stuff they grew up on. That’s why the tribute bands are so big these days. That era of fan were the ones that went out and still do to see rock concerts. This newer generation not so much.

[@ahdemrn]

I saw Stryper in 2000 and it was amazing for me to see them in my country, sadly I couldn't saw them again last year when they arrived to my country again! 🤬🤬🤬

Stryper does NOT play for the Lord! According to 1 Thessalonians 5:22, we are not only to avoid evil, but also things that look like evil. Stryper looks and sounds just like openly satanic bands, such as Motley Crue. The verse reads: "Abstain from all appearance of evil."

It’s to connect with the audience. It’s easier to see him, compared to sitting behind a massive kit that conceals him from the audience.

[@PastorJosh37]

He's always done that so that the audience can actually see him playing (rather than simply seeing his head from behind the drumkit). They've always called him "the visual timekeeper" of the band.

He always thought that it would be more interesting for the audience to see a drummer playing as opposed to hiding behind the kit where people can’t see really what they are doing. In the 80’s he referred to himself as a “visual timekeeper”. I’m sure to set himself apart too.

[@grahamanderson7717]
