No Compromise: The Life Story of Keith Green

I was basically raised on Keith Green's music, and still love it to this day, so I was very excited to read this book. I knew the basic outline of his story, but there were so many pieces that I didn't know. I learned a lot about his spiritual journey and how he found the Lord, as well as details about his years doing music ministry. It was also fun to read the stories behind all the songs! And yes, I cried at the end, even though I knew it was coming.

But this book is more than just a biography. It challenged me in so many ways. Keith was such an intense person in everything, especially his faith. Watching him learn and struggle and grow in his new relationship with Jesus made me look at some things as if I was hearing it for the first time. Keith's message was direct and often uncomfortable, but true- we are called to follow Jesus with everything we are, no compromise.

If you like books about real, raw spiritual journeys, or books about music and ministry, I would highly recommend this one to you, as well as listening to Keith Green's music!
