I'm 65 years old and have been a very serious pursuit of my Lord for 25 years. This is the most profound deep helpful words I have ever heard. Not John MacArthur not John Piper, I've listened to thousands of sermons... Thank God for Rich... God took rich and he was no more.
Rich was such a purely deep thinker and communicator. He was years beyond his earthly years. I pray that I will meet him someday in Heaven. He’s now enjoying unspeakable joy. ❤️
I love that he's asked a somewhat softball youthgroup sounding question, he proceeds to hear the nugget of true longing in the question, and answers with 6 minute deep, heartfelt exploration of a painful wrestle with God, and then ends with "did that answer your question, did that make any sense?"
Cuz he loved people so much he wanted to help them any way he could. The music helped tremendously with that. Many times only a song can get it across...
👆This 💯. And it's funny how after he asked if it answered the question the guy said "yeah, especially the Buechner stuff." We miss it so often when someone tries to call us to a deeper vulnerability. Sometimes it takes mulling over it later to really understand what was being offered.
I thought I was about to cry the whole video, and then he looked deadpan into the camera and said, "did that make any sense at all?" and I just burst out laughing XD
Beautifully stated by a true man of God. Thank you for sharing your musical gifts and spirit with the world. You are sorely missed. Rest in peace and see you in Heaven!
Don't worry about hurting. This is how badly God wants you. ....when we find God we are freed...it is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Joy doesn't come from substances, worldly wealth, joy comes from God. Set yourselves free from those that would impede your freedom. Rich Mullins
Ps….HE REALLY HAD A HEART FOR INDIAN AND MARGINALIZED PEOPLE TOUCHING ME DEEPLY!!!!SOOOO GENUINE TRANSPARENCY IN HIS WORDS AND MUSIC……STILL MISS HIM…DR.BRYANT LANE.
Rich Mullins has his ups and downs, yet you never give up! He strive to be like Christ and his heart was on Fire for the lord! If we just humble our self's and seek him and never give up and repent and turn from our ways, God will hear us from Heaven and heal our land. Thank the lord for Rich and his Family, blessings to all that read this.
I love how this video begins with a little glimpse into Rich's nervous energy. He was no doubt an active listener. I'm so glad I saw him in concert back in 1994, but do I ever miss him! Just when I thought I'd seen all the available Rich Mullins interviews... Thank you for posting this.
This has been a struggle for me. Giving up the idols and what I call the sedatives, giving them up to follow him often has put me in panic or deep depression but I know it's just for a season and it's not just about giving up that stuff but mainly taking hold of him and sowing to the spirit, getting into the word. He showed me that the agony is actually birth pains and he will instruct me all the way through it and to the other side. He is really who I am craving all along. Another trick is to quickly go back to him when I fail. Grace allows this.
I could listen to Rich speak all day. He's been a lifeline for me and I know well the pain that he was speaking of. Now I'm working on the Joy thing, but it's a task, and I must remember that it's a journey and not a sprint. For anyone who is going through the depression that Rich Mullins speaks of, I have found that the Franciscan University Presents, a Catholic Guide to Depression, is a powerful tool for the journey Home 👍 Dr Scott Hahn and the panel of folks do a excellent job at looking at depression and giving helpful information to those who are dealing with it. Anyone in recovery should find it very helpful. Ragamuffin for Life 🙏 Viva Cristo Rey
Thank you for this post. Rich was one to speak on this, as he and his brothers lived it. Of course he was taken (like Keith Green). Some people are just too holy for this sin-encrusted world. Lookin forward to jammin with him and David in the heavenly band. Come, Lord Jesus!😎
I'm almost in tears because this message from Rich wasn't something I was looking for on youtube. How amazing God is when He speaks to me through His kids. I've filled that loneliness, even after being saved, I've been nothing but a wishy washy christian. This from Rich (what a precious man he was, it's our loss but heaven's gain) can change my life if I will only practice it. With God's help, and His people, I will finally fill those empty places in my heart, and life💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏
I love listening to Rich talk as HE has a refreshing honesty and straight forward simplicity in how he approaches things. I say has but it should be had as HE has gone on to be with God.
Thank you so much for posting that; I think I’ve seen this whole interview on some other channel; I love and miss Rich so much, I’m so thankful I got to know his songs, his work, his life, his quotes... It’s always refreshing to listen to him again. And again. May God bless you dear brother/sister in Christ!
I put modern words into his expressions with what he said and it makes total perfect sense, what a genuine human being that found the Lord from addiction or with addiction I just watch the video when I thought it was amazing and it made total sense, thank you so much sir God bless, you made things so much more relevantly simpler to understand and can find the path thank you
What a treat to hear such a genuine , honest artist that relates to humanity as one of us regular people...of all the artists I've ever seen interviewed ( Christian or secular ) Rich just seems to be the most humble , knowledgeable and yet personable at the same time. I truly look forward to seeing him at the great reunion of the wedding supper of the Lamb...Christians NEVER say "goodbye" - it's always "see you later"...PRAISE GOD !!!
Quote it hurts to feel That certainly is the truth. I would rather spend my life with the eternal God the spend all of my time looking for friends on Earth.
I agree. With God you only fond true peace. Joy only comes from God. When you embrace the light which is God you feel, your soul feels pure in God's name.
I'm so grateful for all that our Jesus is doing and looking forward to more of what's to come so keep the encouragement coming in the mighty name of Jesus Amen ❤️
I'm 65 years old and have been a very serious pursuit of my Lord for 25 years. This is the most profound deep helpful words I have ever heard. Not John MacArthur not John Piper, I've listened to thousands of sermons... Thank God for Rich...
God took rich and he was no more.
I agree except for that Rich will always be in Christ. thanks to our Lord and Savior the Lord Jesus Christ
This is great- you can tell how awesome he is by his music but great to hear him speak with authenticity.
Rich was such a purely deep thinker and communicator. He was years beyond his earthly years. I pray that I will meet him someday in Heaven. He’s now enjoying unspeakable joy. ❤️
Amen!!!
metoo Paula, I feel so blessed to find the video I wasn't looking for 💕
Oh! AMENNNN!!! I LOVE RICH & so soo sad he is gone. BUT for sure! WILL FIND Him in Heaven too!
U will meet him love we both will many people will and we will be with our Lord forever!!!❤🎉
I love that he's asked a somewhat softball youthgroup sounding question, he proceeds to hear the nugget of true longing in the question, and answers with 6 minute deep, heartfelt exploration of a painful wrestle with God, and then ends with "did that answer your question, did that make any sense?"

EVERY YOUTH GROUP SHOULD SEE THIS AND DISCUSS IT !!!!!!

Was MY FAVORITE SINGER FOR A SEASON;MOVED ME DEEPLY WITH HIS MUSIC
Ps….HE REALLY HAD A HEART FOR INDIAN AND MARGINALIZED PEOPLE TOUCHING ME DEEPLY!!!!SOOOO GENUINE TRANSPARENCY IN HIS WORDS AND MUSIC……STILL MISS HIM…DR.BRYANT LANE.
Who is your favorite singer now?
Rich Mullins has his ups and downs, yet you never give up! He strive to be like Christ and his heart was on Fire for the lord! If we just humble our self's and seek him and never give up and repent and turn from our ways, God will hear us from Heaven and heal our land.

Wow, one of the most honest and revealing interviews that Rich ever gave!
I love how this video begins with a little glimpse into Rich's nervous energy. He was no doubt an active listener. I'm so glad I saw him in concert back in 1994, but do I ever miss him! Just when I thought I'd seen all the available Rich Mullins interviews... Thank you for posting this.
Never knew about this guy until just now. What a profound thinker and great speaker.
Oh my gosh did that cut to my core 😭
Wow! Nail - on - the - head!
I really miss Rich Mullins’ wisdom and talent, but I know he’s happy and praising God in His presence.
When I think about it that is the best explanation of the 23rd psalm that I have ever heard
This has been a struggle for me. Giving up the idols and what I call the sedatives, giving them up to follow him often has put me in panic or deep depression but I know it's just for a season and it's not just about giving up that stuff but mainly taking hold of him and sowing to the spirit, getting into the word.

Amen. You are right on.
It sure does!👍
@Janx79 yes and thanks to him forever for this. And your reply brought me back here at the perfect time 👌
What a beautiful post!
He said so much in such a little time ! What a glorious eternity with the one who loved him . He was lent to us for a time of blessing .
Thank you Jesus
the Depth of God is immeasurable …what an Awesome God as Rich wrote and sang about…Jesus is Freedom❤️🙏
Rich was an amazing musician.
True words. God and loving Him is everything. Be Thou my vision...
To speak truth and live it shows this is a true follower of Christ! Thank you for posting this!!

Great guy loved all of his songs my favorite Hold me Jesus

This really speaks to me.
Awesome God, Hold me Jesus and some of his other songs get me every time and I listen to him daily, along with Keith Green, Vineyard. Maranatha...
Heavenly friend…. Uniquely wise
This is my dream to be free in Christ
He was so wise. I am learning spiritual teaching from him.
Thank you for this post. Rich was one to speak on this, as he and his brothers lived it. Of course he was taken (like Keith Green). Some people are just too holy for this sin-encrusted world. Lookin forward to jammin with him and David in the heavenly band. Come, Lord Jesus!😎
He wasnt too holy for it, he was to genuine and honest about his unholiness for this world.
I'm almost in tears because this message from Rich wasn't something I was looking for on youtube. How amazing God is when He speaks to me through His kids. I've filled that loneliness, even after being saved, I've been nothing but a wishy washy christian.

I pray you do, Denise.🙂 Can I ask you to pray the same for me?
@@jeph33 thank you Jan💕🙏

Wow!
This was Beautiful , wise & clearly spoken in Pure Love & humility♥️
I love listening to Rich talk as HE has a refreshing honesty and straight forward simplicity in how he approaches things. I say has but it should be had as HE has gone on to be with God.
Such powerful message which definitely needed to be heard very impactful praise God Amen 🙌🙌🙌
There's an empty chair in my heart that is reserved for Christ's only. Don't complain when he comes in and evicts an imposter.
Thank you so much for posting that; I think I’ve seen this whole interview on some other channel; I love and miss Rich so much, I’m so thankful I got to know his songs, his work, his life, his quotes... It’s always refreshing to listen to him again. And again. May God bless you dear brother/sister in Christ!

Here’s another great interview with Rich:
m.ruclips.net/video/AGvJMdNAJjg/видео.html
Yes that answered my question and makes total since,
I put modern words into his expressions with what he said and it makes total perfect sense, what a genuine human being that found the Lord from addiction or with addiction I just watch the video when I thought it was amazing and it made total sense, thank you so much sir God bless, you made things so much more relevantly simpler to understand and can find the path thank you
Well said.
Outstanding!!1
What a treat to hear such a genuine , honest artist that relates to humanity as one of us regular people...of all the artists I've ever seen interviewed ( Christian or secular ) Rich just seems to be the most humble , knowledgeable and yet personable at the same time. I truly look forward to seeing him at the great reunion of the wedding supper of the Lamb...Christians NEVER say "goodbye" - it's always "see you later"...PRAISE GOD !!!
I’m 41 and just discovery Rich, he’s so relational. And praising Christ for his life!
His documentary on Amazon was so refreshing! ❤
Quote it hurts to feel
That certainly is the truth.
I would rather spend my life with the eternal God the spend all of my time looking for friends on Earth.
I agree. With God you only fond true peace. Joy only comes from God. When you embrace the light which is God you feel, your soul feels pure in God's name.
From the soul of a poet who left us way too soon.
0:57 golly, had to pause. What a quote! Greatest need, greatest joy
thank you for this interview!
Yes its right where i am LORD HELP ME FIND YOU I AM HERE I WANT U IN THIS HEART SPACE I DONT WANT THOSE THINGS I RUN TO U JESUS!
Thank You 💜
❤
🙏🙏🙏🙏
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so grateful for all that our Jesus is doing and looking forward to more of what's to come so keep the encouragement coming in the mighty name of Jesus Amen ❤️
wow what a conformation! my cup runneth over :D
no one in History has defeated God in a wrestling match and you and I won’t either…don’t quit but surrender to Christ🙏
A Protestant who understood celibacy (1 Cornthians 7, Matthew 19), and addiction, deep thinker! To be fair, he died studying to be a Catholic
Does anyone know about what year this is from?
It's likely in 1994 based on this youtube video. ruclips.net/video/hyb_w-vWlKg/видео.html
‘94 I think...
