Customer Reviews of In My Father's House

Songs of Praise, Devotion, and Reverence
I have read the reviews of others, and I too have followed Richie through his career. To expound on his song wrting and singing is to repeat what everyone already knows. What should be understood is that Richie has found a place of comfort, quite distant from where many perceive. Richie is not making music to bring attention to himself as he did before; Richie is making music to bring attention to God, with all the harmony, balance, and sincerity we have come to appreciate.

Richie is showing us, through his music, the warmth one experiences when they have a sincere relationship with God. He demonstrates his trust and confidence in his Lord, while sharing his personal delight and satisfaction that comes through such a relationship; As the lord provides for him, he gives glory and thanks in return.

Through his gift of music, Richie is serving his Lord by giving praise to him, and communicating to others the depth of sincere and genuine reverence one can express when their hearts are in accord with the Lord.

One should not hear the music without listening to the message; it is only for the message that this music was written..

Let all who listen to this album appreciate the warmth of his love for God, and how he wishes all of us to experience it in the same manner. Songs of praise and worship are written for this reason.

STILL POCO MUSIC
What a great CD. Even though it has a religious theme, the music and his voice are pure Poco. So even if religious songs are not your thing, you'll still enjoy this CD, and while you'll listening check out the lyrics. They may just touch you like you've never been touched before. Thanks Richie for all the great music over the years.

That's Our Richie!
It is hard to express in words what this CD means to me. It touches my heart in so many places. I graduated from high school in 1967. Music from 1966-1974 is an integral part of my mental and emotional make-up. Richie Furay, along with Neil Young, James Taylor, and Jackson Browne were my favorites in these turbulent and formative years. In 1977, The Lord Jesus saved me out of drug addiction, and kept my marriage to a genuine "Kind Woman" from falling apart. Praise Him, we are about to celebrate 26 years.

I have a son Sam who is 22 and with whom I am very close. Our taste in music is remarkably similar. I told him that in a magazine article, and on the web site for Richie's church, it was mentioned that so many people who Richie played with in the 60s and 70s became famous and big stars, while Richie really did not. Sam responded by saying that was "Not the case in this house".

Anyway, listening to the CD in my truck with Sam, everything came together for me. The Richie Furay voice and musical style brought me all the way back to "Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing". But the absolute non-comprimising Gospel lyrics in every song (you don't become a pastor of a Calvary Chapel by being a slouch) touched me where I live. All of a sudden I started yelling "That's our Richie Sam! That's our Richie!

I love the entire work, but tracks 4 & 5 "Wake Up My Soul", and "We have come to Worship You" are incredible. I don't know if artists read these reviews, but if they do, I want to say, "Brother Richie, you are something special".
