And we needed a keyboard player,

and I remember thinking to myself,
well, there's this really pretty girl
who plays piano in chapel.

starting the greatest Christian rock band of all time.
Would you like to play piano
in our band?
And she said yes,
but she warned me that she didn't play by ear.
She only read music.
And I was like, oh, it'll be
fine.
I'll teach you the songs.
It won't be a big deal.
So for like weeks we would meet
in the practice room after class

she still couldn't play them correctly

And so I started rethinking

But anyway, as things happened,
we ended up getting married about a year later
in the middle of my sophomore year,
and we've been married for 15
years now.
just a few years ago,

I just was pretending like I didn't so that we could go to the practice room together.
All this time, I thought I was in control, I was not.
And so, anyway,
so whenever I graduated college

and we moved to Nashville,

was going to be this career.

She was a school teacher
GGTingnan ang detalyadong diagram ng chord na G sa aming app.
Buksan sa app
and we decided that we'd rather be together and be
poor than for her to keep her job
and have to stay home while
I traveled.
And so she kind of by default
became the background singer
in the band.
Which is funny
because she doesn't really like music
all that much.
And that makes her sound
like a cranky person.
She's not.
She's just not like a music lover.
She likes to listen to radio
and kind of like bouncy fun
songs
BbBbTingnan ang detalyadong diagram ng chord na Bb sa aming app.
Buksan sa app
but like she's as far as I know
GGTingnan ang detalyadong diagram ng chord na G sa aming app.

like the lyrics to a song
or like poured over, like,
played on what?
You know, she doesn't love
music like that.
And so, as a matter of fact,
she's only bought one CD
in her whole life,
and it was the Titanic
soundtrack.
And that wasn't even because of the music,
it was because of Leonardo DiCaprio. And so,
anyway, hilarious.
And the further irony of her kind of
like, you know,
or the way she sees music
is that she is a piano teacher,
so I think that's funny.

for some reason that this particular day we were talking about
what we're doing to push back the fall.
Like, what are you doing in a practical way
to shed light in the darkness
and to build the kingdom?
And, you know, we're with these people who are authors,
you know, and it gets to them and they say,
oh, well, I'm writing a book on the exegetical ethos of,

then it was to tell the truth
in the most beautiful way that I can

and that was my answer but the whole time I was wondering
what is Jamie gonna say
because she's the first
person
to tell you she's
not like an artsy fartsy person
I said that on the recording.
just so you know.
Whoops.
And so she's an artsy

Awesome. She's an artsy person.
So anyway,
I was so curious to see what she would say.
And it got to Jamie and she said,
I'm shedding light in the darkness

into another human being

and your song came on and it

And it's always
nice to get e -mails like that.
But then I thought how unfair it is
that moms don't often get e

and their motherhood
was a blessing to them as they drove
or whatever.
And so I wanted to write a song
that would be my e -mail to Jamie,
to thank her for the great work she's doing in the kingdom,
and for that matter,
