DESCRIPTION:
This message is going to look at God's down to earth goodness, and wholly authentic truth in the iconic Canadian band; Rush.

"Lean not upon your own understanding..."
Clockwork Angels, RUSH

"Lean not upon your own understanding..."
Proverbs 3:5, The Bible

"It seems to me I could live my life, a lot better than I think I am."
Working Man, RUSH

"Rush lyrics communicate to [their fans],make them feel like their experience is heard."
CLEVELAND DJ LADY, Beyond the Lighted Stage

"Rush is an 'outsider' kind of band (never really accepted by the mainstream), made up of three self-confessed 'outsider' musicians (Geddy Lee says they're "terminally unhip"), who speak to and for the outsider fan (the guy who was never cool, never really accepted in high school)."
Pastor John to CJAY's Gerry Forbes on Thursday's morning show

"You just perfectly described my (Rush loving) friend!"
Gerry Forbes, CJAY


"The Life-Light was the real thing:
Every person entering Life, he brings into Light.
He was in the world, the world was there through him, and yet the world didn't even notice.
He came to his own people, but they didn't want him.
But whoever did want him, who believed he was who he claimed and would do what he said, He made to be their true selves, their child-of-God selves.
John 1:9-13a. The Bible, MSG

The song, "Closer to the Heart" is a single by Rush, released in 1977, from the album "A Farewell to Kings". It was the first Rush song to have an external co-writer, namely Peter Talbot.
