This week on the CMB podcast I share with you my conversation with author and blogger, Tim Challies.

We talked about a handful of things, but primarily discussed the effects of technology and the digital explosion in the life of the believer. Specifically Christian musicians.

It was both an encouraging and a challenging conversation that I’m sure will get you thinking.
