In GFR's first live album, between songs, you hear Farner talking to audience not to touch the stuff passed around.....back in 70's it was impressive.... and he has not changed a bit....Great guy and great musician.
i was an big fan of GFR at the age of 13 ... i did not think of much of god back then .... Mark found jesus ? i would had never dreamed that ! and it it help get closer to home with jesus at the age of 54 now
My mother and Marks mother were best friends when I was a little girl...we lived in Flint on Ohio Street... I remember his brother Chuck a little more... and his playing with his little sisters barbies on that the carpeted stairs of his mother's house... heehehe.... wow... what memories.... wish we could of met Mark!! Maybe someday.. God bless you.... Diana :.)
Yes Virgina, You can love rock and be Christian. I know from personal experience. When I was 7 I woke from a coma on Christmas day. When I was 47 I woke from a coma on Christmas Eve day. In between I saved a girl from drowning when I was 17. I saved 12 people, 2 lil, dogs and an unborn child on 4 rescue missons in the USCG by helo as a SarCrewman. I met my wife 4 months after I woke from my second coma and she saved my life twice when I had seziures. God DOES work in mysterious ways ! HE IS LOVE
Well alright I'm proud of Mark for this straight forward interview, his unhappiness and how he knew he had to get back to the only One who can redeem us fully, who gives us a purpose to carry on - our Lord Jesus Christ. I love so much Grand Funk music, it's interesting to hear him say he was inspired by Jesus to write many of those songs. Rock on Mark!
Thank U Lord 4 saving brother Mark & I'll never give up on pray'n fer Don,Mel,Craig & Dennis!!! & the rest of U ROCKERS out thier! Luv U All!!!! peace... =0)
Rcckin and Rollin for God is the greatest. After 40 + years of drinkin and druggin in rock bands. I finally found my niche with Jesus. Peace and Love and Glory to God!

I am pleasantly surprised...I knew I liked
Mark's (and GFR) stuff...but never knew
about his connection to Jesus Christ.
Very good to know...makes his music
that much better. God just keeps on
sending the blessings Y'all !!!!!
