Summary

My guest on the show is the incredible musician and composer Jerald Simon. We talk about how a terrible accident in his youth shaped his views on life and faith, learning piano, starting a family, finding his mission in life, joy in teaching youth, composing, publishing piano songbooks, sharing his love of music and positivity through his podcast and how being a member of the church affects it all! Jerald is passionate, insightful and so talented.
