It’s been a long time coming, but apparently Petra are splitting up at the end of the year. They have been going for 33 years so it probably is about time to retire. Personally I’ve not been as impressed with their recent music as I was in the early 90’s but maybe I was getting older quicker than they were. (This will be good news to Kristen who doesn’t like their music)

just for the record it is NOT good news to me because as a good friend pointed out to me once — just because I don’t like their style of music doesn’t mean they’re not good and it certainly doesn’t mean they haven’t had an impact on the world for God. I heartily agree that Petra is not my style of music, and will even admit that I like several of their songs, when sung by other people! They’ve had a huge impact on the music industry and paved the way for the current Christian artists there, and for that I am grateful.
