Reading with Your Kids Podcast Ft. PHIL JOEL, a Grammy-nominated Musician & Author
Happy Sunday everyone,
We’re here to delight your Sunday with another entertaining and educational author interview! Our guest today is Phil Joel, is one of Christian music’s most recognizable folks. He is the former member of influential Christian rock band Newsboys and now a part of one of the most loved music bands in the world, Zealand!
In our exciting interview, Phil tells us how he never intended to write a book at all and how his experience in northern California inspired him to write Redwoods and Whales.
More about the author

He currently tours with Zealand, his most current musical venture, and Newsboys United. He lives in Franklin, Tennessee with his wife Heather and two kids.
Redwoods and Whales: Becoming Who You Actually Are
As depression, addiction, medication, pornography and suicide have become commonplace in today’s culture, it seems we have lost sight of who we actually are. Too many of us are finding ourselves breathing shallow, feeling stranded and alone.
The truth is that we can cut free from the things that are holding us back and making us sick as we catch a clear vision of the true character of God. We can chose to live healthy lives filled with purpose and vision as we become our actual selves, moving confidently through the chaos.
As we choose to align our minds and our hearts with the truth, we’ll discover that maybe God isn’t exactly who we thought He was and that life with Him is a whole lot bigger, greener, and more exciting than what we’ve settled for.
Redwoods and Whales breaks the box and blows the mystique off some of the most common pink elephants of our culture. Phil Joel brings a fresh take and uninhabited tools to the table to help us push aside the things that entangle and lay hold of the lives that we are born to live.
