John Schlitt was the voice behind the legendary '70s rock band Head East. At the height of success, he almost lost everything. What looked like the end of his career became the beginning of something far greater. He is now the lead singer for the Christian Rock band Petra. Today, he's here to share how a personal crash, a radical encounter with Jesus, and an unexpected call to join the pioneer Christian rock band Petra changed everything.He shares his personal story to faith and the unexpected call to join Petra as the lead singer. We also dive into why so many Christian artists today are deconstructing their faith, whether the Christian music industry has lost its way, and how to stay faithful to Jesus amidst fame, temptation, and pressure.READ: A Rebel's Manifesto, by Sean McDowell (https://amzn.to/3T3Sfdd)*Get a MASTERS IN APOLOGETICS or SCIENCE AND RELIGION at BIOLA (https://bit.ly/3LdNqKf)*USE Discount Code [SMDCERTDISC] for 25% off the BIOLA APOLOGETICS CERTIFICATE program (https://bit.ly/3AzfPFM)*See our fully online UNDERGRAD DEGREE in Bible, Theology, and Apologetics: (https://bit.ly/448STKK)FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: https://x.com/Sean_McDowellTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sean_mcdowell?lang=enInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/seanmcdowell/Website: https://seanmcdowell.org
