Family publications mentioning Christy Gibson

In an August 2009 Mo Letter, titled "Offensive Briefing #9: Collaboration", Steven "Peter Amsterdam" Kelly had this to say about Christy Gibson:

40. An example of that is the music ministry that some Family members in Thailand are involved in. Jonas and Christy are nationally famous for being foreigners who have mastered the difficult lukthoong style of Thai folk music. Through their celebrity status, many doors are opened to the Family and a lot of witness goes out. Jonas and Christy are the ones that people recognize and know best, but through Jonas and Christy's testimony, the Family is also recognized and received.
