Matthew Ward - A Jesus Music Pioneer

The late 60's and early '70's were a time of tremendous upheaval in American culture as the hippie generation abandoned the values of their parents, turned to drugs and away from materialism, and went on a search for love and peace.

It was out of this tumultuous era that young, musical voices began to surface. These newly converted musicians began singing about the new hope they had found through Jesus Christ.

Matthew Ward was one of these young voices. Go behind the scenes with him to look at this exciting era in this clip from, "First Love".

I just love this family...I just read that Annie wrote this song and told Matthew it was meant for him to sing it...God gave it to her during the time she was praying for him as he endured Cancer treatments and all the difficulty he faced during his bout with cancer. What a beautiful song...I am in awe of it.

@sjouke120 ...I've done that too. It would be nice if YouTube could make that "undoable."

It's OK to coin words, right? ;-)

Too bad we children of God have denied His power to heal based on His offerings of Herbs which I watched heal my Mother of melanoma & remove a nasty growth from my leg

Others I have spoken with have been healed of thyroid, lung and colon cancer, and always they receive the same doctor's report & the single most misused word in their profession, "Misdiagnosis"

Western medicine has a real cash cow in intrusive, destructive cancer treatment as they 'legally' remove every natural healing option
