The 10-Year Lie That Almost Killed My Calling | Andy Cherry

Описание: At 24, Andy Cherry walked away from a record deal with Sony to save his marriage. Then he spent 10 years believing God was done with him as a songwriter.

Until a 2020 worship night when God resurrected what Andy thought was dead.

In this episode, Andy Cherry (songwriter for Brandon Lake, Passion, Josh Baldwin) shares the moment he realized: "You write yourself a letter and forge God's signature on it."
