“It’s not that God is unknowable—it’s that He’s endlessly knowable.” – Jason Gray

Jonathan Unthank sat down with Jason Gray to talk about how God has been reshaping his faith through the years. Jason opens up about writing his upcoming devotional book tied to his songs, what God is teaching him about humility and holding beliefs with open hands, and the story behind his single Be Kind.

Jason shares how kindness carried him through his own battles, and how Jesus continues to meet him in surprising ways—even through childhood memories and simple daily encounters.

3 Takeaways:

Faith is a journey of learning, unlearning, and letting Jesus reshape us over time.

Our posture before God matters more than getting everything exactly right.

Simple kindness can be life-changing—it reflects the heart of Christ to a hurting world.

“I want my kids to see me seeking God, because it’s necessary that I hear from Him.” 

Jonathan Unthank talks with The Band Reeves — two brothers from East Texas who do life together in just about every way. From working construction side by side to raising their families on the same farm, their story is rooted in faith, family, and the transforming power of Jesus.

They talk about growing up as pastor’s kids, what it means to move beyond head knowledge of God and into a real relationship with Him, and the weight and joy of leading their homes in faith today.

This episode is all about how Jesus changes everything - from sibling rivalry to marriage, fatherhood, and the calling to share hope wherever God sends them.

Takeaways

“I want faith that never stops reaching for God, even when it looks impossible.”

“I just want to live out of my identity as a son of God, not out of striving or comparison.” – Patrick Mayberry

This week on Rewrite, Jonathan Unthank sits down with worship leader and songwriter Patrick Mayberry to talk about his journey from chasing rock and roll dreams to leading people in worship. Patrick opens up about how God drew him in through Young Life, the power of corporate worship, and how he hopes every person in the room feels seen by Jesus. Plus, he shares some real-life parenting moments, his heart for hospitality in worship, and what it means to rest in his identity as a son of God. Don’t miss this encouraging conversation!

Patrick’s story shows that sometimes faith is a slow journey, not a sudden moment, and that’s okay.

Worship leadership is about intentionality and making people feel welcome – like hosting them in your home.

Identity in Christ matters more than success, striving, or comparison.

This week on Rewrite, Jonathan Unthank, Music Director at The Light FM, sits down with worship leader and artist Peter Burton—you might know him from his song “Where Would I Be.” In this episode, Peter shares his story of growing up in church, walking through seasons of anxiety, and what it really means to choose faith every single day.

He talks about the powerful moment his mom reminded him that “Faith isn’t a feeling, it’s a choice”—and how that truth changed everything. Peter also opens up about why gratitude became a lifeline for him and why he believes God is glorified not only in healing but in the sustaining.

If you’ve ever wondered where God is in the middle of your struggle, Peter’s story will encourage you to keep going and trust that hope is real.

Faith is not about feelings—it’s a daily choice to trust God, even when emotions don’t line up.

God’s strength is often revealed in our weakness; your ongoing struggle can still bring Him glory.

Gratitude is powerful. Counting your blessings can shift your perspective and bring peace in the middle of anxiety.

“You’re only one prayer away from a testimony.”
God is always writing a story—even when we don’t see it yet.

Your past pain can become your platform.
Anne never planned to be a musician, but God used her deepest loss to call her into worship.

Even when you feel stuck or uncertain, God has already gone before you.
There’s power in trusting Him with the unknown.

If Anne’s journey reminded you that God is always working—no matter what season you’re in—why not take a moment today to talk to Him? You’re only one prayer away from the next chapter.
