Interview on Scottish Radio

I was interviewed by Ruth Aird in Edinburgh on Heart of the Matter. Her husband, David Aird, edits their interviews and weaves significant songs throughout. They picked up three songs that I sang. 


It's never been a focus of my professional life to be heard singing on the radio, but it certainly answers a little prayer of my heart I've had since I was a boy. 


Two of the songs -- "Round the Throne in Glory Seated" and "Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer" -- were from a short film we shot in Wales about the Welsh Revival, and I sang both of them with Rev. Timothy J. Mercaldo, our music director for Songs of Revival: Hungry After God Himself. I'm fine tuning that film and hoping to release it soon. Appreciate your prayers to that end. The third song was from a short film I did about Eric Liddell leaving Scotland to serve in China: "Jesus Shall Reign." Our friend, Domenic Guastaferro played piano for that one.


Here are links to some of the things we talked about:
