Korn Guitarist Finds God

Guitarist Brian Welch, has parted ways with Korn, the band he helped start.

Guitarist Brian “Head” Welch, a founding member of Korn, has left the band and has rededicated his life to Christianity, according to the group’s management.

“Korn has parted ways with guitarist Brian ‘Head’ Welch, who has chosen Jesus Christ as his savior, and will be dedicating his musical pursuits to that end,” a statement from the band reads. “Korn respects Brian’s wishes, and hopes he finds the happiness he’s searching for.”

Welch plans on further explaining his decision to leave Korn this coming Sunday, when he’ll address the congregation at the Valley Bible Fellowship in Bakersfield, California. And on February 28 he plans to leave for Israel.

Let me go google some Korn lyrics… eewwww. Yuck. The first one I stumbled across was “The Christmas Song” that begins,

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, everybody was stoned, even the mouse.

Man from the whore house and me from the jail,
I just settled down to get a piece of her ….

Screeeech. That’s enough of that. Yuck. No wonder a devout Christian would have enough of that.

Kudos to Mr. Brian Welch, and I’m going to look forward to future work from him as he dedicates himself to Christian music.

More news on Brian Welch’s decision here, and thanks to Michelle Malkin for pointing out the story.

Luke 15:7, “I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninetynine righteous persons who do not need to repent.”

About Me

Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.

Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”

If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.

Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
