It is rather cool, but surreal, to see former Korn guitarist Brian "Head" Welch being interviewed on the Protestant television show "Life Today." He has a new book out called Save Me from Myself: How I Found God, Quit Korn, Kicked Drugs, and Lived to Tell My Story .

Wow! I hope he finds the Catholic Church one day! I’ll be praying for him!
Prayers he is Romeward bound. Every generation needs a Mother Dolores Hart.
Thank you for posting this!!!!!!! My brother (a real mess, although improving slowly) is a Korn fan. I do believe this book is going to find its way into his hands. May Brian’s search continue, for as we all know, all roads lead to Rome!!!
Wow! I had to go ask my kids about Korn, but I’d like to read that book, someday. All God’s love stories are irresistible!
I remember watching the Robinsons when I was just learning what it meant to be Christian. I am Catholic today and wary of many Protestants on TV, for obvious reasons, but I believe these two are for real.
Ok, I do have a hard time seeing past the eyeliner and the everywhere tatoos. It is hard to look at someone genuinely when they are covered in what appear to be scars of self-destruction. I did want to offer him a blanket or something.
I’m not saying that such a person is worse than anyone else. Just that when someone does that to himself and displays it, I wonder if this is a test. And if so, who is testing whom? There is s’thing UNreal about it all…
Somebody should try saving him from his hair
My dear people, this young man was part of the heavy metal/techno community for some time, did drugs, etc. He is a new convert; let’s not expect him to come out in a three-piece suit and tie just yet…
Well, Christine, maybe that’s the UNreal part, ie, the contrast between the interviewers and the interviewed. Like, it would have made much for sense, even practically speaking, for him to have come quietly to the Church, rather than be highlighted in this way. Here his difference shows too much. 🙂
I feel warm and fuzzy and almost compelled to begin talking in southern accent and give all my money to Pat, I mean James and to do what Jesus would do too; split the Church he instituted, divide it as often as possible and invited others to support ministries that continue to do the same. 🙂
I wonder if anyone’s introduced Brian to the Donut Man?
As for the hair and tattoos, they don’t bother me at all.
Actually, I am sure Larry is smiling on down.
