On this week’s Rewrite, Jonathan talks with country-pop artist Walker Hayes about how Jesus completely changed his life. You might know Walker from hits all over the radio, but today he opens up about something far bigger than music: what it’s been like to become a brand-new follower of Jesus after years of doubt, addiction, loss, and trying to hold life together on his own.

Walker shares how the Lord met him in the middle of deep brokenness, what sobriety looks like 10 years in, and how being a five-year-old believer has filled him with childlike wonder he never expected. He talks about writing songs from a new perspective, how his family is navigating life on the road, and why he’s learning to “go with the Lord’s flow” instead of forcing his own plans.

Whether you love his music, have walked through hard seasons, or are praying for someone you care about to meet Jesus — this conversation will encourage you. 

God doesn’t give us a spotlight for the whole road — just enough light for the next step.” — Garrett Hornbuckle

On this week’s episode of Rewrite, Jonathan Unthank sits down with Christian artist Garrett Hornbuckle to talk about how Jesus met him in the middle of a tough childhood and how faith has grown one step at a time.

They also talk about the hard seasons — loss, family challenges, and a long medical journey with his son — and how God has remained faithful through it all. Garrett opens up about the heart behind his music in this season and why he wants his songs to be a lifeline for people who need hope right where they are.

“You don’t have to clean up before you come to God. The Father is already running toward you.” -Phil Wickham

On this week’s episode of Rewrite, Jonathan Unthank — Music Director at The Light FM — sits down with worship leader and songwriter Phil Wickham to talk about meeting Jesus as a kid in a home full of music, the moment he became friends with Jesus for himself, and why those “everyday hallelujahs” matter more than any spotlight.

Phil shares what God is teaching him in this season as a husband and dad, the heart behind Song of the Saints, and why his single “This Is Our God” still means so much to him today.

If you’ve ever wondered whether Jesus really welcomes you back after a messy season, Phil’s encouragement here will bless you. He reminds us that the Father runs to meet us — today, right now — and invites us into a deeper walk with Him.

Full reliance on Jesus brings peace no matter the season.

“God is in the business of changing lives, and He’s really changed mine.”

This week on Rewrite, Jonathan Unthank, Music Director at The Light FM, sits down with Christian artist Megan Woods. She shares how God met her in a season of brokenness and showed her what it means to find true worth in Him.

From singing into a hairbrush as a kid, to leading worship and touring with Big Daddy Weave, Megan’s story is one of God’s faithfulness. She talks about the struggles of identity, when Scripture came alive to her, and how she’s learning to lean on God’s strength despite her weakness.

If you’ve ever wrestled with where your worth comes from or needed encouragement that God meets us right where we are, this conversation is for you!

Remember this:

God meets us in our lowest places and reminds us of our true identity as His children.

Scripture is more than words on a page—it’s life-giving when we let it speak into our story.

Ministry isn’t about perfection; it’s about leaning on Jesus daily for strength.

“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.
