The Petra Zone

I know Mardel in Plano, Tx has 2 copies of "Petra" and have just about all the CD's. All the ones from On Fire! on back are on sale for $6.99. It's been like that for a couple of years now. They must be getting it from somewhere so I don't think it is out of print. Also every once in a while I'll s...

Billy Graham is not cool...The man says all religions lead to heaven, buddhism, hinduism, islam. Thats just crazy. Theres only one way to heaven a narrow way through Jesus. Bill Graham and the like try and preach a wider way... Can you point to a specific, documented statement where Billy Graham ha...

Best thing is to learn greek if you want a 100% perfect understanding. Even KJV is subject to a few translation "idiosynchrancies". I took biblical greek during my final year of college to fulfill the foreign language requirement (and my father, a Ph.D., even teaches biblical greek...but at a diffe...

As bad as the bookstore chains might be, and Family Christian Stores here in my town lost ALL my respect when I went in there and was told that they had not received any Petra: Farewell CD's and were not going to be getting any, I must give my compliments to the very friendly staff of the Berean Boo...

Washes Whiter Than is one of only THREE Petra albums which does not have a song that I really absolutely enjoy (the other two being the original release from 1974 and Double Take). That being said, Morning Star is probably my favorite among a group of songs that wind up somewhere in my "rarely or oc...

Count me in as well...

Due to medical reasons I cannot participate in fasting, but I will pray.

I feel the same way about the album No Doubt that y'all feel about God Fixation... Those two albums were incredibly popular both in my youth group and at my (public) high school...and both rank in my top five in terms of favorite Petra albums. I think that if Petra had released a couple more albums ...

You have pics/video clip from Fort Wayne??? I was at that show...any chance of seeing those? Oh yeah...and my wife (who is pregnant) couldn't get to the bathroom at one point during that concert because "some dude with a headband or stocking cap" kept asking her questions about how far along she was...

I can wager a guess. All Fired Up Hit You Where You Live Judas Kiss Grave Robber This Means War He Came He Saw He Yadda Yadda (milquetoast DT version) Back To The Street Get On Your Knees Mine Field Angel of Light Praise Ye The Lord Etc. Can anyone tell me WHY "Get on Your Knees" makes this list? I...

Shell,
Thank you for the information. I will certainly do that as soon as possible.

Hey, I am new to this board (but not new to reading it), but there seem to be a lot of people here who know ways to get in contact with various Petra members. I have a real life thing (story, event, chain of events, testimony) that happened over the course of several years. Because of events surroun...
