There are a lot of bad worship songs, in my opinion, but there are a lot of good ones, too

I sure love Ireland. The first trip I ever made was last year when I did this record in Dublin.

I've been there and done all that, sold millions of records, and that doesn't bring you peace.

I think The Big Picture was such a huge shift from my second record.

Healing rain is a real touch from God. It could be physical healing or emotional or whatever.

I'm always trying to challenge everyone to raise the game on the artistic level. We are supposed to be the best. Make sure we don't get complacent or comfortable, and always trying to push the limit on trying to write great songs. At the end of the day it's why we do what we do.

Doing the instrumental thing, you're really looking for the power of the melody to carry the record.
