Summary

John Eldredge invites singer and songwriter Josh Garrels into the podcast studio this week to discuss his new song, "Watchman." It's a fascinating conversation about Josh's walk with Jesus, the power of music, and why John believes "Watchman" is the anthem for this moment in time.

Show Notes: "Watchman" is used with permission and is available wherever you get music.
