A lot of people may not know who he is, but "back in the day" when I was "on fire for God," I imagined myself growing up to be a music minister, and this man was my "idol." You probably won't recognize the name unless you were involved in church music, and actually read the "written by" parts on your church music, but in 1984, he won two Dove awards for writing "More than Wonderful "(best song, best songwriter).

 

He also happened to be part of the same religious org I was part of, the United Pentecostal Church, the Oneness freaks. I couldn't afford to go the bible college he taught at (thank GOD . . . uh, I mean thank YIF!*), so I went to the local city college, and found reason instead.

 

Anyway, since there wasn't one, I wrote an article on wikipedia about him . . . Not really "creative," but this was the only place I could think to put it.

*YIF = "your imaginary friend"

Nicely done. I remember him from when I was in the UPC. He taught at JCM when I taught at ABI in St.Paul, MN.
