Fantastic Read

One of the more inspiring books I've read in sometime. Definitely changes your perspective on life and how we could choose, to live it.
Strongly recommend.

A Great Read

After having speedily received my order from Amazon, I indulged myself with a creatively written, adequately detailed story of the life of Keith Green. No Compromise is a wonderful book that recreated the story of a great man's journey to finding Christ and sharing the story of Jesus. Melody Green writes in a way that captures the heart and soul of Keith Green and shares his life story in a way that makes the audience feel like a part of it. With great stories received at a good price, this book is a must-buy from Amazon.

This is an awesome book. Highly recommended for any believer or Keith Green fan.

One of my favorite books of all time!

I've always been a big fan of Keith Green and especially love the story of his life. Melody Green did an excellent job telling the story and this will always be one of my most favorite books. It's a glimpse into the life of a real person with an extraordinary faith, but who didn't keep it to himself as some kind of mystic. Keith lived it out with sincerity and invited everyone in for the journey. His mistakes and triumphs matched with his humility and passion for God show us that it is completely possible to live without compromise as we walk in the grace of God.

One of the elements of Keith's life and ministry that I continue to find encouraging and compelling was his determination to present ministry without charge! This remains a striking challenge that most in today's so-called Church are still not heeding (and would rather sweep aside and ignore). Some write this off as a "radical tendency" he had that was unrealistic and over-zealous, yet few are willing to sincerely consider and acknowledge the fact that Keith's decision in this regard aligns perfectly with the New Testament and especially the character and example of Jesus who, himself, said: "Freely you have received, now freely give."

The story of Keith's life and music remains an incredible inspiration for so many, including myself. He was indeed just a regular guy, trying to work out life in connection with his faith, but he demonstrated an extraordinary passion for truth, love and relationship with God that is as compelling as it is convicting!

This new edition is nicely put together. It has a contemporary look and maintains the readable print size of the original. There are more pics in this one too, which is great! I'm just now reading through it again and haven't been able to pick out the added sections yet, which I think is probably good; they are blended well into the new edition.

My original concern was that this "updated" version might make subtle attempts to slant the story a bit with a modern influence. So far, that does not appear to be the case. I was concerned about this because the book features new endorsement by Mike Bickle of the Kansas City prophetic movement; which embraces some concerning doctrines and bizarre beliefs (including a view of ministry that is quite contrary to the mindset that Keith demonstrated in his own life). I'm sure this new endorsement is added because of Melody's favorable connection with some of the people in this movement and I'm sure her intentions are good... It simply led me to be more cautious in the review of this edition (and, as I said before, I am still reviewing it and, so far, it seems to be untainted).

Despite my arguably minor concerns I am really happy to see this great book still in print and I pray it remains so for years to come.

Buy it! Read it!

This is from someone who has never read a 490 page book other than a textbook or the Bible. I read it in a few days and it has a powerful message. Short and sweet - a great book, easy to read with a message. Read it.

reviews: page 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Longtime fans and new listeners can experience the impact of Keith?s character, courage, and commitment in this revised and expanded testimony of his extraordinary life.

Who better to tell Keith Green?s story than the woman who shared his life and mission?his wife, Melody. At the time Keith and two of their children were killed in a tragic plane crash, Melody was pregnant and had a one?year?old child at home. She inherited Keith?s musical legacy of published and unpublished songs and his private journals, which she has put together in this extremely personal biography of Keith.
