Green changed focus again in 1998 by declaring he would only record songs that honor the Lord - songs that he could be satisfied with should it be his last recording. That coincided with a controversial ruling by the Gospel Music Association known as the "Definition of Gospel Music" that erupted with major disqualifications at the ensuing year's Dove Awards over songs that did not honor the Lord. That year saw the release of "The Faithful" and 2000 saw the release of a devotional song album entitled "Morning Light". Two years later Green released "Woven in Time" and again found himself receiving a career boost.
