The Spiritual Lessons from Ozzy Osbourne’s Life

As Pastor Barron Greenwalt of En-Joy Ministries, I reflect on Ozzy Osbourne’s passing with a heavy heart. In my youth, I listened to his music, but as a follower of Christ, I now see his legacy differently. His “Prince of Darkness” persona and indulgent lifestyle clash with God’s call to holiness.
