in 2008, at 2:45 a.m.,Larry Norman went to rest and rejoice in the arms of his Saviour.There are people who will criticize and denigrate both his music and his attitude, but he truly was a musical genius and a religious visionary who helped to start a revolution that brought many young people to Christ, and he continues to do so through people he influenced.
His last years were years of much suffering and pain - I think that's pretty common with saints - and I know he wouldn't fit in the usual Catholic category of saint, but I also think that those categories are far too rigid to be of much use. God used him mightily, and the world is a greater place for his work, and a sadder place for his death...
