	Rich Mullins - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mullins was seen as an enigma to the Christian music industry.
		Mullins became a songwriter in the Contemporary Christian music industry by 1984, penning songs for Pam Mark Hall, and a second song for Amy Grant.
		Mullins was never really aware of how well his records sold, because the profits from his tours and the sale of each album went to his church, which divided it up, paid Mullins a small salary, and gave the rest to charity.

	Rich Mullins -- Enigmatic, restless, Catholic
		Even friends described Mullins as "enigmatic" and "eccentric" and there was much more to him than hit songs, led by the youth-rally anthem "Awesome God." Grant summed up his legacy during last month's Dove Awards in Nashville, in which Mullins received his first "artist of the year" award.
		"Rich had a very low view of church structures, but he had very high ideals about what the church could be," said his brother.
		Nevertheless, Mullins' recent music was steeped in Catholicism, from his autobiographical album "A Liturgy, A Legacy and A Ragamuffin Band" to his "Canticle of the Plains" musical about a Kansas cowboy he called St. Frank.
