Every week congregations sing songs old and new, but rarely think about where they come from.

In this workshop, moderator Greg Scheer talks to David Bailey, Aaron Niequist, and Jeremy Zeyl about their writing process, the contexts for which they write, and the things that inspire and challenge them. Join us as we learn from these seasoned songwriters and gain a deeper appreciation of the songs we sing.
