Rich Mullins Songs: How His Faith, Compassion, Brokenness, And Joy Shaped His Music

Richard Wayne Mullins was an American contemporary Christian music singer and songwriter best known for his worship songs "Awesome God" and "Sometimes by Step".

While Rich is best remembered for his hits such as "Awesome God" and "Step by Step", echoes of his heart and soul are best heard in most of his less popular works. Rich always did seem like a B-sides kind of guy, not wanting to draw much attention to himself or conform to whatever was popular as much as sharing his music with others wherever and however he could. And it is in those B-sides songs that much of his life, soul and very personal relationship with God is revealed.

This personal tribute to Rich Mullins explores many of his B-sides songs and delves into how his faith, compassion, brokenness, and joy shaped his music, and how his songs can still speak to fellow believers today.
