A good man and a true minister of God has entered heaven recently. John Fawcett's music ministry is one of the reasons I am able to serve the Lord today. I attended 9 Pastoral Care Ministry schools and the first 7 were greatly blessed by his worship leading. It would be amazing - the teaching would open up my mind to the Truth of God in untold ways, but it was the music that led me to receive and trust the Holy Spirit and His work, like never before. John would choose songs with lyrics that were completely in line with how the Spirit was moving. Being so new to personally collaborating so deeply in and with the Spirit, I was rather fearful of the whole experience, at first. But the music gave me strength and the assurance that, in the depths of my soul, complete and total surrender to Jesus Christ was exactly what I was born to do. I remember waking up to those songs playing in my spirit weeks later - they truly had a profound and eternal effect on me. I am deeply grateful for his humble obedience and service in leading me so effectively into the wonderful presence of God. His dear family and friends are in my prayers.
