Doug and J.R. Start the conversation about the way scripture has been forming them recently, and they end the argument for the ages on which translation is the best… just kidding. However, we do talk about the translations, specifically which one(s) we use and why?  

Our interview this week is with Stephen Roach. J.R. recently met Stephen sharing a Lyft ride together in Nashville, and now we are interviewing him on MMP. Stephen and his wife founded the breath and the clay, a creative arts gathering exploring the intersections of art, faith & culture. This conversation offers an in-depth perspective on creativity as an attribute of God and something that needs to be pursued as living out faith. If you are an artist, maker, creator of things, worship leader, musician, creative, or know someone who is... this interview gives a framework to cultivate curiosity. You will look forward to J.R.'s next Lyft ride.
