christmas reality together
I love Christmas music and there's nothing like getting together with friends at Christmas time to celebrate with music the incredible reality of the Savior's birth.
christian song dad
Writing songs out of my faith was a real natural progression. I grew up singing in my dad's choir and singing with my family. Christian music became the music that I identified myself with and was a way that I expressed my faith. Even at a public school I would take my Christian music in and play it for my friends.
whole knows
I know a lot less about God, but the things I know about God, I know a whole lot more, for sure,
country style want
Country music is just country. It's going to shift around a little bit, doing some different instrumentations, different production styles. But it will always come back to what you heard at the Opry. Nobody wants it to change.
car people reason
Cars are the reason we, you know, people live or die.
jesus believe lazarus
I believe God weeps over - over death. Jesus wept at the grave the Lazarus. In the Bible, Jesus weeps at death.
people trying please
I am prone to reshape and refashion things to try and please as many people as I can, to get as many nods or smiles out of as many people as possible.
song artist people
I enjoy being on stage with other artists. I have a chance to watch and see people responding to the other artists songs. I get to see how people are affected by the music.
art husband father
I want to live with that sense with the music I make, with the art I make, with the way I love my kids, with the way I am a father and a husband and a friend and a follower of Christ, I want to live with reckless abandonment to the truth of the Gospel.
years trying break
I've been here 21 years, and I literally did walk up and down Music Row trying to break into the business. I felt very free to go into any publishing company.
christian art sake
There's obviously always danger in making music or art for art's sake. Even as Christians we can be guilty of that, being more about the art than the Artist who gave us this gift.
country ebb-and-flow wonderful
That's one wonderful thing about country music - it shifts, ebbs, and flows stylistically, unlike pop music.
singing hopeless glitz
Everything we're singing about is true, and even when you take away all the glitz, it's still true in the darkest, ugliest and most hopeless places.
believe men scripture
I believe very confidently in the truth of Scripture, where it says that there is no authority, no power given to man except as given by God.
