If you have been following Petra for some time, you know that NOTW stands for NOT OF THIS WORLD, the title of both the album and song of Petra's 1983 release.
John talks with the American Bible Society's "Share
Your Story" feature, telling about his favorite life
verse and various stories in the Bible that inspire
him on a daily basis.
John joined the staff at Lifeway Christian Store in
Franklin, TN, Wednesday, June 24, for a morning
devotional, prayer and to introduce the store manager,
Mike Bayly and staff to his album, The Grafting.
David
Teems of Franklin played an instrumental version of
"The Grafting" in the background while John spoke,
followed by an acoustic performance of the same.
Manager Mike Bayly stated that "the whole experience
was a blessing for everyone in so many ways. Only
our Lord could do that."
Day 11 - June 20 - Sweden
Our final report is from Halmstad by Rickard
Karlsson. A BIG THANK YOU to Rickard for all his
hard work with the videos and reports!
John and Ådahl arrived in Halmstad at 2 pm, and
between 4-6 pm I had a very nice talk/interview with
John at the hotel.
I picked up John before the rehearsal at 8 pm. He
recognize the concert place, where he had played
many times before with Petra and II Guys. The sound
at the rehearsal was great, so also was John's
voice.
After praying it was time for the concert
in front of maybe 1500 people.
Ådahl did great on stage, and you could feel the Holy
Spirit's presence.
John had the same setlist as the day before, plus "He
Came, He Saw, He Conquered."
The crowd enjoyed the show, with a lot of jumping and
singing. Great(!!) sound tonight! Perfect live mixing
sound. As so many times earlier in Sweden, after the
show the audience started singing "God Gave Rock'n'roll
To You." ... A great concert and a perfect finish of a
fantastic and very blessed tour!
John is available to come to your church, your city or
your country as a solo artist OR with a full band!
