Because this is a posthumous release the music is even more meaningful. The orchestration is lush and the original recording of Rich working on the songs is a look into the man himself. Wonderful!

Rich Mullins has long been an inspiration for me... For me he has always provided a powerful yet gentle witness for Jesus and the way of the Kingdom of God.
Recently I noticed I'd missed out on this album when it first came out. Very strong and poignant recording. highly recommended!!

Great album, have owned it for years, bought this copy for my daughter's birthday. She heard it while riding with me and was totally wowed. A wonderful tribute to one of the greats of Christian music.
Really am moved by In my Father's House.

Beautiful. Some of the greatest songs ever written are contained on these CD's. There is not very much music that you would do as well to own. If you listen to christian music to worship and to be edified, then get this.

I just love this album. Like so many others, I didn't realize the blessing that Rich Mullins was until after he had gone to glory. "Hard to Get" is just so brutally honest. What I love about Rich's music is that he was willing to show his vulnerability, and his neediness. "My Deliverer" just makes me so long for the return of my Savior. "Surely God is With Us", "Man of No Reputation", "Nothing is Beyond You", I could just go on and name every song. These songs still move me to tears, because they are layered with meaning. Can you tell that I love it? Oh, and one more thing: "That Where I am..." is a great song for kids. My three year old dances around the house singing it, which is such a joy!
Buy this album, you will be blessed!

Years after purchasing this double CD album, it is still a joy and a boost to put both the studio produced disc and the disc of demo tracks into the player. While the lyrics and tunes of this album are excellent in their own right, they hearken me back to the classics Rich Mullins gave us over his all-too-brief career.

This is one of the greatest CD's ever! Rich's songwriting is wonderful and moving, while the Ragamuffin Band (plus special guests) put together a truly unique and wonderful album!
