Speaker and Musician

Bob Bennett-Musician

Award-winning musician, Bob Bennett, will be the retreat's song leader and will also perform an acoustic coffeehouse concert, Friday night at 9:30 PM for retreat participants.  His "Matters of the Heart" album was named Contemporary Christian Music Magazine's 1982 "Album of the Year", and his songs are an important legacy of the Jesus Movement of the 1970s and '80s.  He has recorded with Phil Keaggy, Randy Stonehill and Billy Crokeett.  When asked if he had been to Nebraska previously, Bob replied, "I think I was in Omaha on a tour with Amy Grant and Michael Card."  We are excited to have him make a return trip.  

On his website, Bob says, "I think that accomplishing some sort of ministry by playing music is a completely faulty, frail method that God still manages to use.  My primary goal is to communicate truthfully with people.  If I can communicate truthfully the life of the Spirit and the always-accompanying struggle along the way, then ministry happens as a natural result of that.  If something deep and profound happens, I'm as amazed and grateful as anyone else!"

Many examples of Bob's music can be found on YouTube.  Bob hosts a weekly live Facebook stream of songs and requests that began as a response to Covid performing restrictions.  We are certain Bob's music will teach, inspire and lift our spirits throughout the weekend.
