My Take
Rich Mullins is one of those artists I keep coming back to precisely because he refused the trappings of success. Writing songs like "Awesome God" that outlived him by decades, while reportedly living on a modest stipend and giving the rest away, tells me everything about where his priorities sat. His death at 42 robbed us of more, but what strikes me most is how his work lives not on charts but in the quiet of other people's prayers. That kind of legacy, earned through sincerity rather than spectacle, is the sort I respect far more than fleeting fame.
