 Dear friend of LDM,
This time of year often brings friends and families together.
A few weeks ago my daughter Rebekah and her husband George flew from Los Angeles to Kansas City to visit. Rachel and Bobby live near me with their three kids -- my beautiful Grand-Children!! So our whole little family was together! One sunny day we took the kids to a pumpkin patch zoo and had a blast.
Thank You for Helping
LDM Transition!
I'm so grateful for your generous gifts! Since our last update so many of you have given sacrificially.
You helped meet pressing needs and made LDMs transition back to Texas (for some staff needs and more cost effective shipping) so much easier.
If you’ve been with us “forever” you’ll love this: We actually got our old PO Box in Lindale back -- Box 40. It was a miracle and a sweet kiss from the Lord!

From Melody:
You are a looking at a first fruit from "our vault" where I’ve stored precious memories. This photo was taken almost 33 years ago, but it feels like yesterday.
Perhaps it will remind us of our first love, and maybe it will challenge a new generation to deeper devotion.
It’s time to share some treasures in ways that honor the Lord and properly commemorate Keith’s legacy.
This amazing photo is one of my favorites. It's not just a concert photo… it's a moment in time, captured by a photographer hidden in the rafters. It shows Keith’s heart and passion for God in a powerful, unguarded moment.
When we yield our lives to God He uses us to draw people to Him. Whether we are in an office, a store, or even on a big stage – God will use us.
I think all who love Keith’s music, and heart of worship, will be inspired and challenged by this amazing moment.
Keith was focused on Jesus and we need to be focused too.
* Be sure to look at the larger version. The lyric's of "Oh Lord You're Beautiful" start in lower left and wrap all around the photo. Across the bottom we've noted the place and date and info on Keith.

-- More Back-Story on the Poster --
Oral Roberts University, March 1979
Keith’s ministry at ORU was a defining moment in his walk with the Lord. Just a month before Keith had experienced a life-changing, personal revival. It was so powerful he referred to it as being like "getting saved again" when he compared it to his first years as a believer.
Keith's personal revival brought him to a deeper conviction about sin and complacency in his own life, and also within the church as a whole. Then Lord led everyone at LDM into that same kind of prayer and repentance.
With a concert at ORU already scheduled, Keith believed God wanted to bring the same spirit of revival to the prestigious university campus. He believed that once the fire ignited at ORU they could use their strength and influence to take the revival across America.
Keith was originally only scheduled for one chapel service on campus. And there’s an incredible story of how ORU "uninvited" Keith. But Keith drove a team to Tulsa anyway to plead his case for revival. Then Keith was not only "reinvited" by ORU, but he was miraculously given three nights in a row to minister at ORU’s Mabee Center for free -- the nicest and largest auditorium in Tulsa!
Melody takes a whole chapter in her book No Compromise to share about all these events and if you have not read her classic yet, we encourage you to do so. We don’t have enough space now to tell the full story, but we'll do our best.
Briefly, the LDM ministry team had been in Tulsa for weeks to fast and pray with Keith and Melody. And each night of ministry at the Mabee Center grew in numbers, intensity, and deep conviction of sin. Something bigger than anyone imagined was swelling to a crescendo.
The amazing photo in the poster was taken on the second night. God was obviously moving deeply on people’s hearts. Keith himself was worshiping and yielded -- silently pleading with the Lord to have His way. The presence of God was stunning. What an amazing moment in time to capture!
The third night of ministry was bathed in fasting and prayer again, and there was a sense of holy fear and hopeful anticipation bubbling beneath the surface. If revival broke out at ORU who knew, they might actually carry it across America after all.
At the altar-call on the third night the crowd was again moved by God, and one by one they filled the stage and the aisles, on their knees. But this night it was different. There was more brokenness. More desperation.
Keith literally crawled under the piano, weeping, as students spontaneously stood and lined up at the mic to openly repent before their peers. The presence of the Lord was almost tangible. The confessions were getting more candid. A university administrator took the mic to bring a word of caution. And as soon as he finished speaking the auditorium went flat. You could hear a pin drop.
God’s presence vanished so abruptly it stunned everyone. There was nothing anyone could do. It was over.
But those who were there will never forget when God showed up and hearts were changed forever.
