Publisher Description

A  nationally best-selling author and pastor draws  lessons of hope and transformation in the perils of excess, the agonies of  repentance, and the wonder of redemption found in the life stories of several icons of pop music and rock and roll. 

From the author of Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon and Steve McQueenThe Salvation of an American Icon comes Lennon, Dylan, Alice, and Jesus, which traces the journeys, rise, fall, and sometimes the redemption of famous entertainers who were brought to their knees—a great place to look up and finally meet their Maker.

Lennon, Dylan, Alice, and Jesus examines wretched excess, self-absorption and miraculous redemption; the book is a raw, sensitive, and unforgettable journey of sex, drugs, rock and roll, and sweet salvation. Author Greg Laurie traces the lives of rock stars and entertainment figures and legends who wallowed in the decadence of both the high life and low life, as they alternately experienced Heaven and Hell on Earth. He travels with them into their demonic abysses and joyfully chronicles their ultimate ascension to their prodigal moments.

Lennon, Dylan, Alice, and Jesus chronicles the birth of rock and roll in the mid-1950s to today, giving the book an all-encompassing study of pop music history. Through his personal memories, coupled with his carefully crafted observational research, Greg Laurie not only looks deeply into the hearts and souls of these unusual people but bids the reader to join him on a spiritual journey down the secluded halls of the music industry with the individuals who crafted modern-day masterpieces.

Readers will enjoy never-before-published accounts of the biggest recording artists of our time and hear testimonies from rockers of the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, and beyond. More importantly, every reader will find a deeper sense of God’s presence, even in times of loneliness and desolation.

Conservative Man ,

Read Greg Laurie

Just read what he writes.

It’s truth. He’s lived it. He’s seen it. He’s writing about it.

Jesus shares the stage with no one.

Light has no fellowship with darkness. Do you think God likes rock and roll, you know the answer. Paul said of his former life I count it dung. When we are born again we have a a new spirit and our old sinful life is dead. I pray for eyes to be open and hearts changed. Would you take Jesus to a Rob Zombie, Alice Cooper concert?

Trusting in Christ Alone ,

Heretical

Greg Laurie calls Alice Cooper, a person who puts on demonic horror concerts, a strong Christian. Enough said.
