From touring in the group 4Him to working as a worship pastor to leading a radio show, I've had the opportunity to be a part of the Christian Music industry for the last four decades. I'm Andy Chrisman and I've had the unique opportunity to tour with, record with, and become friends with just about everyone within the Christian Music industry. I think this makes me the perfect person to tell their stories. Welcome to 1 Degree of Andy!

Jaci Velasquez
I first met Jaci when she was 15 years old, singing with the voice of a seasoned pro! She and her mom jumped on the 4HIM bus for two different tours in the 90s and now 30 years later we sit down to talk about life as a teen CCM sensation, the roads she never thought she'd travel, and how raising a family is not at all what she thought it would be.Support the Show.andychrisman.net

Steve Geyer
Few people make me laugh harder than my friend, comedian Steve Geyer! But as funny as he is, his heart is just as big and I'm so glad for the time we spent on tour together. I've learned so much from Steve over the years - from learning how to improvise in difficult situations, to not taking things so seriously, to being an example of someone who loves to serve others. Get ready to laugh and walk down memory lane with me and my buddy Steve Geyer.Support the Show.andychrisman.net

Customer Reviews
Golden Era
It’s been an amazing experience to listen to all the people that helped shape and inspire my Christian walk. I was a huge 4him fan as a teenager during the 90s and early 2000s, but loved other artists as well. Hearing CCM artists reflect on their past experiences has been eye-opening. Andy is so gracious, humble, and you can tell how much he admires the people he brings on his show.
Incredible
It’s been a fantastic experience to hear stories from these incredible artists. To hear the stories and how they began and the impacts they are still having has made even better. I grew up on many of these artists and it’s caused me to go back and buy their music and add it back to my playlists. Thanks Andy and the artists for taking the time to do this.
Blast from the Past
As a believer who grew up (and still do) listen to my favorite CCM artists and then was a concert promoter for several years, it is wonderful to hear intimate conversations with many of those I’ve met at concerts, festivals and churches along the way!
