The Cross and the Jukebox: Rich Mullins – Hard to Get

“Are you really there? Do you really hear me? How long, Lord, will you allow this to happen?” These are the questions the late Rich Mullins asks in his song, “Hard to Get.” In a tone that sounds almost disrespectful, Mullins seems to be pressing Jesus to prove he has not lost touch with his own humanity.

Join me on this week’s “The Cross and the Jukebox” as we delve into the depths of Mullins’ questioning that God is there, and listening, in the midst of his doubts and despair—and how the gospel offers peace and comfort even in the midst of our deepest anguish.
