Talk:Keith Green

message: I removed the language that suggested there was something wrong with the way Last Days Ministries mentions the airplane crash. LDM doesn't have some sort of obligation to say, "By the way, the crash was all Keith's fault because he insisted everyone cram into the plane." The article states that the plane belonged to LDM, that Keith organised the flight, and that it crashed because it was overweight.

thread_title:  The Crash 

message: The songs previously referred to as praise choruses do not fit the definitions of that genre in any way. They are hymns and are included in some recent hymnals. 
I also changed back the term "Evangelicalism" to "Christianity". Keith may have been an Evangelical, but his devotion was not to Evangelicalism. I removed the use of quotation marks inserted to lower the credibility of statements. These are some a series of edits here an elsewhere by the anonymous 82.143.162.72 who seems to go around various Christianity-related articles with bags full of quotation marks, liberally scattering them around.

replies: text: I put the quotes back in around "small, colorful magazine" and clarified the language.  The purpose of the quotes in this case was not to lower the credibility of this statement, but to quote the magazine's description of itself.  This was my edit - I started the paragraph about the magazine as I felt it deserved a mention.  I don't know anything about any of the other quotes in the paragraph, but they do seem to add a negative POV as they are apparently taken out of context. H2O 20:02, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: That was bizarre to read. What would either the Vatican or the CIA gain by pulling that one?
Keith Green had a lot of influence and during the time of ecumenical manipulations through the chrazismatic movement such as kathryn kuhlman etc, they could not let him sway the populace of believers under his influence. Thus before it was published he needed to be silenced

replies: text: Why was this assassination claim never reported to the law?  Considering the common belief is that the plane had several more passengers than it could, and crashed from being overloaded, the assassin should have done the just thing, and confessed her guilt not to the author of some website, but to the police.  Failing that, the website owner should have given this information to the law.At the least, Melody Green deserves to be told the truth.  Otherwise, the whole story sounds bogus, as if it is a wholesale story, part of some website's Satanist conspiracy scare. 98.240.250.74 (talk) 02:14, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Misc 

message: Any chance we could remove the quote about going to college? Either that or expand it? I'm pretty sure I have the talk where the quote came from on CD and I think such a small excerpt from a longer speech doesn't really do his talk justice. The quote just sounds silly and/or makes Keith sound kind of crazy and the whole talk (if i remember correctly) was more about people who go to college without a direction or reason for going along with people who simply just say they're working/studying for the glory of God when really they aren't.
Of course I could be way off, if someone has some audio or an article where he stated that quote without all i've just said, I would love to hear it.

text: We don't put things in Wikipedia because they are for heathens or Christians, or because their inclusion or exclusion is reflective of any POV. I should have encyclopedic value, providing a better understanding of the subject from a NPOV. --Holford 04:43, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Cleanup

message: In the article for Keith Green it states that:
Green went on to play "Kurt Von Trapp" in a major production of The Sound of Music
but it does not specify when, where or what format (stage, movie, ...)  Does anyone know the specifics regarding this reference?
If someone has the 'No Comprimise' book, it goes into details there.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.131.125.49 (talk)

I've upgraded the majority of the album artwork as the existing files were pretty poor.

thread_title:  Album Artwork 

message: "The Live Experience," "The Live Experience Special Edition," and "Greatest Hits" have had their release dates pushed back several times. According to several sites (EMICMG/Chordant,CMC Distribution, Christian Book Distributors) and from direct information I received from Betty Daffin at Last Days Ministries, the release date is currently set for 4/29/2008.

thread_title:  Upcoming Album Release Dates (as of March 2008) 

message: Since the "Live Experience," "Live Experience Special Edition," and "Greatest Hits" albums are out now, I updated those lines to reflect the actual release date instead of saying "scheduled release date."  Also, based on the Last Days Ministries website (http://www.lastdaysministries.org/Group/Group.aspx?id=1000008701), I updated several albums with more specific release dates, if more specific dates were available.

thread_title:  Updates to album dates 

message: Last Days Ministries recently updated their website, so the links from this Wikipedia article to the website were all broken.  I think they're all fixed now, if I caught them all. Cjsummers (talk) 17:55, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Last Days Ministries website update 

message: I added the new EP's that were released this year, "The Early Word" and "Happy Birthday to You Jesus".  I also separated secular and Christian posthumous releases to distinguish between them.  I added a brief description of the "Happy Birthday" EP in the Legacy section.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Keithgreenfan (talk • contribs) 02:59, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  New Album Releases 

message: Recently added a new section titled "Movie", noting Melody's announcement of a movie about Keith's life on the Last Days Ministries website.  Updated this section today (5/18) with additional information from a Daily News interview, in which it is revealed that Michael Leahy is working with Melody on the project, and that the film is slated for release in 2011.Keithgreenfan (talk) 00:13, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Forgive me if I'm breaking protocol by not formatting this properly -- this is my first time in years to contribute and I don't want to mess anything up, but my attention span is limited -- but I wanted to offer a possible citation for the reference in "Spiritual experience" to Keith having been "raised in Christian Science." He referenced this in an appearance on "100 Huntley Street" in 1982, which can be found here: 100 Huntley Street interview | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOYQSn46q08 Hope a more experienced Wikipedian finds that useful.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Woodnwheel (talk • contribs) 14:13, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

thread_title:  Suggestion for missing citation 

message: Missing from Keith Green's discography are most of the songs he created as a boy and teen. By 11, according to the TV show What's My Secret?,* he had ALREADY composed over 40 songs! What are these? Where are these? How many were recorded? How many were released? Which were released by Decca? 
Also, Melody Green was a songwriter, before and with her husband, and perhaps after? If there is no article for her, then, here, what were her songs before she met Keith? What about any other songs by her? Which did she do music on, and which the lyrics? A lot is missing here.
A lot could certainly be added. Fans? Misty MH (talk) 00:16, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi @Misty MH, I agree that a complete list of songs that were published prior to Keith's conversion would be great. Of course there are a few mentioned here. I should note that even though Keith wrote that many songs, I believe only a few were actually recorded. Keithgreenfan (talk) 14:19, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
