"A singer, a teacher, and more. For Years, Michael Card has been sharing his gift for gentle, expressive folk music and the ability to take the central themes of Scripture, placing them in songs and words easily grasped without diluting their power. Now, you have the change to experience the ministry of Michael live in concert, as with cellist, John Catchings and keyboardist, Scott Brasher, he reveals both the serenity of his music and the depth of his spiritual insight as he invites his audience to greater understanding of the riches found in the Person of Christ."

I think of anybody on earth Michael will be the one who sounds the most like Jesus. It will be so wonderful in heaven to hear them sing together. God bless you!!

[@kathleenyork9440]

His album The Life was my first! My oldest daughter had been sending me contemporary Christian tapes when she was in college in late 80s. I never cared for them. Then at Christmas she gave me The Life. She said,” Mom, you will love this one.” She was right! My midlife blessing baby was raised on Michael’s music and at 33 she can still sing these beautiful praises!

[@davidshipley2099]

No Christian artist has shown more integrity in his life, more Biblical teaching in his songs and more gentleness in his call to follow the One "who would rather die than live without us".

[@paulettesmith9308]

I consider Michael Card the Isaiah of the modern age. He knows Christ so intimately.

[@markgaedtke2184]

Forty years down the road and Michael's praise of The Lord is as fresh and powerful as ever. A lesson in every song. Thanks Mike, for helping a fellow musician grow to love Jesus. You changed my life in a profound way, and I'll always be grateful to you for showing me His "warm reality". This world needs to hear your voice crying in the wilderness now more than ever.

[@casszanggonmiah]

YES!

[@paulettesmith9308]

I've always considered Michael card the Isaiah of the modern age. you compare him to the Baptist is quite wise & accurate as well. Hallelujah

[@tanyadixon8708]

what a Man of God; a true psalmist. My life was changed by his music.

[@wirotetesslaee2032]

[@marionstamman4765]

I love his music. Thank you Michael.

[@dwightjt]

I have heard your songs for more than 30 years Micheal And never get tired Of them. The message in them Is new and fresh Every time I listen To them. Thanks for God's word in song. Dwight.

[@janemazzola4454]

I enjoy listening to Michael Card multiple times. His piano & guitar music & voice, his reading Scripture & interpreting it, his own goodness & devotion as a Christ believer shines forth in his beautiful concerts. He also says what is succint & important & never seems afraid of a moment of silence. What gifts of a performer w/which God has blest Mr. Card, & what a blessing he has returned to God & his audiences.

[@paulettesmith9308]

Excellent use of the word: succint. I agree with everything you say I love Michael that's my number one artist.

[@janemazzola4454]

@@paulettesmith9308 Thank you!

[@422rds]

You are welcome. I was signed in on my other Utube account when I commented. This video/ concert is such a powerful witnessing tool. Succint, soft and soulful sounds. Gospel gentleness and peaceful praise and prayers. 🙏

[@loanntran-martinez3277]

I love his heart through the music he created. Micheal trully gave all glory to the Lord. I have so much respect for this man.

[@marylinarrieta906]

I have followed Michael for many years after seeing him in concert in 1985 A humble servant of God. using his gift for God's Glory. He plays many instruments and God is using him to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ

[@bobleroe3859]

Michael Card and his friend/fellow-musician John Michael Talbot have shaped my singing and guitar playing.

[@Nikonik66]

My pastors and teachers were Michael Card, Keith Green, Dalas Holmes, Twyla Paris, Russ Taff, Leon Patillo, Carmen, Amy Grant, Petra, Bee Bee and Cee Cee Wynan, White Heart, Degarmo and Key, Mylon LeFevre, Steven Curtis Chapman, Brian Duncan, News Boys, DC Talk, and many many more. Through music, "Thy word have I hidden in my heart".

[@lrackley1]

Carmen also, Pat Boone ❤

[@gregray6413]

In C.S. Lewis' classic The Great Divorce, he discusses how pale we are as we move into the heavenly land that is solid and pure through and through. Michael is a man who is ahead of my in holiness, devotion, worship, discipleship and holiness. My in most being drawn to beauty and holiness and so I am drawn to Michael as he reflects God's glory, yet as one who has spent much time in the dark, i am both drawn and my own thin dark paleness drives me to linger in the shadows. Thank you for men like Michael who pursue diligently and draw us to follow. I am forever changed by the great priviledge of sharing in the fruit of Mr. Card's deep pursuit of God.

[@RUHDD4HVN]

Musical mainline to the throne of God....... Just so good and so right. Thank you Michael!

[@kylieMel]

I thank God for your gifting all the time. Thank you for doing our Lord's will. God bless from Australia 😊

[@lisamarie6611]

I am exactly where I need to be now! None can take the seal away! Even if broken. For it provides more fruit!

[@bailaki89]

Michael Card has been such an inspiration to me, for he really focuses on Christ and his music is so deep.

[@rolemodlin]

This VHS was my introduction to Michael Card. I have been blessed by his gifts ever since.

[@ianbailey8559]

Praise God. Thank you Lord for this precious brother

[@willlywillly]

Oh how much I love Michael Card's music...one of my favorites. So sad main stream secular christian music industry never played his music much if any. But I am convinced that this is the kind of music I will get to hear and sing when I get to heaven. I am going to get music lessons from Michael Card, Twila Paris, Annie Herring , King David and so many more to play before my King Jesus for all eternity.

[@willlywillly]

How could I forget Fernando Ortega.

[@casszanggonmiah]

That first song GETS ME EVERY TIME!

[@robertbuckingham4927]

What an impactful truths in song.Songs of comfort.Songs of war.Songs of peace.

[@slshaver7831]

going to one of his concerts was like going to Bible college - he did more then "just" play and sing. he truly taught and ministered. his songs are teaching as well! is he still performing? the radio station i worked at in Florida had him do our Sharathon concert one year. he showed up on a motorcycle, all dressed in black. we were like, who is is person in our parking lot? then he took his helmet off! Love Crucified Arose almost makes me cry every time.

[@paulettesmith9308]

Wow!! that's awesome. I'm just imagining the look of Michael all dressed in black leather on a motorcycle. Blows my mind.

[@managerrobak2814]

Such an awesome teacher, preacher, composer, performer, witness. Long Live Christ our Lard through Bro Michael & all of us.

[@johnpfmcguire]

You have made faith both pleasant and uncompromising. You and John Michael are a light to me.

[@seanmoore1068]

Beautiful voice, amazing writer, solid Theology.

[@Luke418nineteen]

One of the greatest blessings to the body of Christ Michael Card

[@blendisalaj7122]

I love this music and message.

[@martinone9]

I met Michael Card and his family about this time...good people.

[@michaeldedman1]

Absolutely brilliant! Glory to God the Father.

[@1stlast290]

Thank God for Mike. Profound impact in my life... Probably would have walked away

[@dpatco]

Raised my children on Michael C. He was part of the ceremony at my daughter's graduation from Carin University in Langhorne Pa. Decades of giving at the sacrifice of his own family....He is a True Slave to Jesus as God intended it to be. ThankYou Michael for your sacrifice.

[@rhunter3619]

A Slave is someone held against their will...Maybe a bad choice of words there big fella ; )

[@Soon2BRev]

Except Paul considered himself a slave for Christ.

[@KevinQualls]

Yeah, Michael was part of mine and my wife's wedding ceremony.

[@batlevi2247]

I got to meet Michael Card I was at a concert of his it was wonderful, got to take a picture with him! God bless ya Mike

[@clah399]

[@ShaneMincer]

Thank you God for Mike and inspiring him to sing these songs.

[@KevinQualls]

Yeah, He has been a part of discipleship since I went to Bible College back in the early 90's.

[@yemesirachwolday9543]

God bless you. very beautiful song and talent!

[@walterdearmond3968]

An amazing servant with an amazing heart. Thank you Michael for your gift to the Body. I can't wait to see you in concert in July! :).

[@JulieJackson1]

Seen Michael live in England a couple of times. Amazing man of God. I used to have this video, but lost it in house moves, so thanks for posting.

[@tommypowell1137]

When my children were young I would play this video while they were eating breakfast and while I was making their lunches it was such a wonderful time of the morning

[@taylordewd]

Also have this on VHS. One of my favorite artists by far.

[@danielledumond5063]

we have had a recorded version that includes a Ray boltz appearance as well! That tape must is from like 94-95.

[@digital777889999]

Hahaha!!! I love the 80's! Look at the guy with a mullet on the piano! He looks like a 80's metal rocker! I love Michael Card! He reminds so much of my childhood growing up in the church. This is my first time seeing him perform in concert. Thanks for posting this!

[@whodatmedat601]

I know that guy, he's a legend. Bed more woman wilt chamberland and his hair is still getting laid....

[@MikeImhoff]

I love him so much!

[@Jettguzman]

One of the ways I understood while reading was thru this anointed man’s music. Thank you Michael Card. 8:47 Could it be the only answer that means anything is you. The final word That's what faith must be Know you in the now Could it be Jubilee The Nazarene Meditation #2 (instrumental) That is the mystery Dreaming Jacob's dream Spirit of the age Joy in the journey Barocha

[@antonio-bettynavarro6809]

I Still LOVE His Songs! Probably, since the 1980s. When I was first raising my daughters.

[@neilsutcliffe4195]

I had this on video and lent it someone who didn't return it. thank you for uploading - can enjoy it all over again. Such a beautiful presentation.

[@noraleitch2908]

This is a man who knows God intimately ;He blesses us w/inspirational joy, peace, and Christ strength praise God” for giving us Christ thru, this man’s songs ; he is a real soldier of Christ Cross”

[@leonardmoss3002]

[@annspiration7226]

[@christianmcfarland6878]

I need to hear a live version of Maranatha

[@jjken81ify]

Thank you for uploading this video. It is really great to watch live his concert!

[@philliphsieh83]

Psalm 84:1-12 How lovely is Your tabernacle,O Lord of hosts! My soul longs, yes, even faints For the courts of the Lord;My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God. Even the sparrow has found a home,And the swallow a nest for herself,Where she may lay her young-Even Your altars, O Lord of hosts,My King and my God. Blessed are those who dwell in Your house;They will still be praising You. Selah Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, Whose heart is set on pilgrimage. As they pass through the Valley of Baca,They make it a spring;The rain also covers it with pools. They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before God in Zion. O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer;Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah O God, behold our shield,And look upon the face of Your anointed. For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand.I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God Than dwell in the tents of wickedness. For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The Lord will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly. O Lord of hosts,Blessed is the man who trusts in You!

This is Awesome!!

[@petemitchell2874]

thank for converting and uploading this I too have the VHS I imported from the US when it was first released but had no way of playing until now!

[@tophampaul]

Pete Mitchell there a few of ys commenting here that we're so glad to be able to hear again since VHS days. What a breath of fresh air from so much of modern Christian music.

[@skhamadi]

Great song

[@AaronBosley66]

Love his music. So talented and wisdom filled. Where is this music today?

[@ianbailey8559]

So will be your answer? Will you hear the call? Of Him who did not spare his Son. But gave him for us all, On earth there is no reason, there is no depth or height, that can EVER separate us from the love of God in Christ. Just an answer, just permission to work his will in our hearts, O Lord my God Yes a million times YES

[@sharonlys1406]

Hi all of you you shall listen to William Braham sermons they are helpful for us to be close to God and strengthen our faith and life don't miss it u will find it in every languages

[@ronheald8737]

I just love listening to him as he read Psalm 103 (18:00 mark). And the Barocha at 42:15 is epic.

[@MsMaria990]

thank you for up loading! Love it

[@markzabel2631]

AMEN!!

[@jswanny]

Love it !

[@godsblade101]

back to front 10 times now in the last month haha

[@superdude1759]

It must be hard to try so hard to get the audience involved and they just absolutely refuse! It must be discouraging! After concerts like this he must be like, "No, stop it, stop it (rap upon the cranium) I forgive them Lord, darn it I forgive them!" He's obviously a masterful lyricist, but seemingly underappreciated by the drones vacillating in the audience who wondered if they went to the right venue!

[@jimwiskus8862]

What a joy having this again! I have a brand new unopened copy of this on VHS and was going to look into having it transferred to a DVD format. I think it’s protected from what I understand. Perhaps the company that produced this in 1990 would consider putting this out on DVD?

[@junekirkpatrick7376]

Error - meant to LIKE

[@ellenarchambault8526]

I love and worship to his music. True teacher. Just curious to know why he wears his wedding ring on his left middle finger.

[@dougspurell2387]

🍁 LOOK TO THE POOR AND DESTITUTE BECAUSE THAT IS WHERE YOU'LL FIND ME. BE A BLESSING TO THEM, AND I WILL REVEAL MYSELF TO YOU.

[@Mistfall254]

This song bout the innocent being killed rlly hits close 2 home that could gave been me I was a 24 week preemie and was said 2 never b able 2 function w/o a ventilator so the NICU team suggested 2 terminate me but I'm here 26 yrs later tho I'm disabled but it could b worse

[@dorothykirkpatrick7460]

What is the title of the piano/cello piece played before the reading Matthew 18? I need to find the music score for that.

[@crescentfreshbret]

Is that John Catchings on cello?

[@tanyadixon8708]

crescentfreshbret , yes, it is!

[@markspurgeon8096]

How many felt he sounds as Robin Mark?

[@HomesteadExpert]

I love Michael's music...What year was this recorded?

[@marka.3337]

By the songs sung (and clothing / hair styles...ha!) I'd put it at about 1988. Present Reality was released then (Final Word, Could it Be, etc.)

[@casszanggonmiah]

What year?

[@bilbobaggins5815]

Why is Bronson Pinchot playing the piano.?

[@peterkeller3256]

It's Scott Brasher playing the keyboard BTW

[@markmcsw]

How does he play a right-handed guitar left-handed, the bass strings are all on the bottom???

[@scot349]

Yes, it's truly amazing that his finger placement to form chords is unique to himself and very few others. I have known of very few players who play in this fashion. Very remarkable 👏

[@josephmarcotte1869]

Michael Card is inspired of God 2 Timothy 3:16 John 3:16

[@philliphsieh83]

I have become a fool for Christ.
