What they say...

the pastors and vicars..

"the gentle giant with the big hair"

"Music from a craftsman." 

"powerful lyrics"

"a rich blend of music and purpose (...) the thoughtful words (...) spoke to the heart."

"anointed and effective"         

"people got a sense of someone alongside them, struggling and dreaming with them and brave enough to make a stand."

the teachers...

"One of my class enjoyed that so much he says he can’t wait for heaven."

"professional entertainment with a message"

the children...

"John Froud is my favourite singer. He's better than Gareth Gates or Busted. And he comes to our school!"

"He makes us laugh Bibles!?!"
