Friday FIVE: October 24 - Phil Keaggy
Update: 2025-10-24
Description
In this week’s episode, we listen to the many talents of Phil Keaggy — the guitarist, the vocalist, and the musical interpreter of great texts. From the lyrical compassion of The Little Ones to the Beatles-like shimmer of Love Divine and his haunting setting of C. S. Lewis’s As the Ruin Falls, Keaggy shows how excellence and devotion can live in the same song.
Here’s an interview with Phil Keaggy and the poet Malcom Guite talking about Lewis’ poem: https://youtu.be/BoPzW8SIBM4
