I had the honor to play after the showing of the Rich Mullins movie at Deaton’s church- Bailey Christian Church. This was the first time it showed in Michigan that I know of. It was a very well done movie about his life and included many people and highlights: Zion, Christian College, Nashville, Amy Grant, Beeker, and even Mitch McVicker, who played himself.

I just played a few songs, as it was nearing 10pm and we still had 1 1/2 hour drive home. But it was fun. I got to travel with Josh Wellborn and his son Isaac who were both so patient and cool about the whole evening. And I got to play with Annette and Alan Deaton, two very awesome people.

I learned some new stuff about Rich, and was reminded about others. Its different to see a movie about some of the things you experienced as a kid.
