As always, you make me remember something - this time, the day Alice Cooper attended the church my family was attending for a season. It was so wild because it was like - hey, that guy looks just like Alice Cooper but no, surely it couldn’t be bc we didn’t know he was a Christian. But as it happened, it was later confirmed. Here’s the link to the article our then-pastor wrote about it: http://www.northescambia.com/2015/03/viewpoint-the-day-that-alice-cooper-came-to-church

I read what your former pastor wrote. Good story. Love his attitude about wanting celebrities to be able to worship in anonymity.

I've been following news about his conversion for quite some time. He knew R. C. Sproul and there are some video interviews with the two of them together. Pretty cool to see him being so open about his faith.

I had forgotten all about it and never knew about this. I’ll have to see if ai can track down the videos with Sproul.

All I’m finding right now is this story about Sproul and Cooper meeting for the first time and playing golf together. But I’m pretty sure I’ve seen them talking together in a video. Can’t find it now.

As usual you've brought to life old memories and sitting around a campfire brings many to life. I had no idea about the snap and crackle so further research is necessary. Also the Elisabeth Elliot quote is beautiful. I know those fires of trial well. Thank you so much for the subscribe. I feel a deep connection to your writing.
