  1. Ellie Holcomb on Wrestling with God

    Ellie Holcomb on Wrestling with God

    “Jesus doesn’t step back from your brokenness - He leans in.” Ever feel like you’re trying really hard to be a good Christian… and still wondering if you’re enough? On this episode of Rewrite, Jonathan sits down with Ellie Holcomb for a really honest conversation about faith, heartbreak, motherhood, and the moments when following Jesus feels both beautiful and hard. Ellie talks about meeting Jesus as a little girl, growing up loving God, and then realizing she’d slowly started believing she had to perform for His love. Through heartbreak, grief, and seasons where her faith felt dry, Jesus kept meeting her in the same place; not where she had it all together, but where she was honest. If you’ve ever felt tired, discouraged, or unsure where you stand with God, this conversation is a reminder that before you ever did anything right or wrong, you were already His beloved. 1. You don’t have to perform for Jesus. He loves you in your honesty, not your perfection. 2. Jesus moves toward the broken places. He meets us in grief, doubt, exhaustion, and even spiritual dryness. 3. Your truest identity is beloved. Before titles. Before relationships. Before success or failure — you are His.

    World on Fire with Luke Smallbone

    “If you want to change the world, go home and love your family.” What does it really mean to “set your world on fire”? In this episode of the Rewrite Podcast, Jonathan Unthank sits down with Luke Smallbone from for KING & COUNTRY to talk about their powerful new song “World On Fire.” But this isn’t just about music — it’s about soul care, slowing down, and rediscovering intimacy with Jesus. Luke shares the story of standing at Oxford University where two men were burned at the stake for their faith - and the bold words spoken before the flames were lit: “Play the man… we shall light a fire that will never be put out.” That moment sparked something deep. From taking time off tour to becoming less addicted to accomplishment, Luke opens up about spiritual growth, fatherhood, marriage, and what it looks like to love your family well in a world obsessed with platform and performance. This episode is about everyday faithfulness - about letting Jesus meet you again - not on stage, but in the quiet.

  3. Mary-Clair: Growing Up in Christian Music and Finding Her Own Faith

    Mary-Clair: Growing Up in Christian Music and Finding Her Own Faith

    “Sometimes the grind is the point—God is shaping you before He ever puts you on a bigger stage.” Jonathan Unthank hangs out with singer-songwriter Mary-Clair to talk about what it was like growing up surrounded by Christian music — tour buses, studios, MercyMe in the mix — and then realizing there comes a moment when faith can’t just be your family’s… it has to become your own. Mary-Clair shares what it’s like stepping out as an artist, playing shows where no one shows up, and still choosing to trust Jesus in the middle of it. It’s an honest conversation about listening for God’s voice over the noise, staying faithful in the small beginnings, and believing that even when the room feels empty, God is still doing something big behind the scenes. Remember... Growing up around faith doesn’t replace the moment when your faith becomes your own. Obedience matters just as much when no one is watching as when the room is full. Failure, disappointment, and slow seasons are often how God builds depth and trust.

    Seph Schlueter: Counting My Blessings

    “I just wanted to give Jesus my full yes — even when it didn’t make sense.” Seph Schlueter Jonathan Unthank, Music Director at The Light FM, sits down with Seph Schlueter to talk about the moment he said a full yes to Jesus — even when it meant turning down a full-ride scholarship and stepping into missionary life in Ohio. Seph shares how that obedience laid the groundwork for his worship-driven music and the heart behind songs like “Counting My Blessings.” They also talk about faith, family, becoming a new dad, and why following God sometimes looks like doing the thing that makes the least sense on paper. Seph’s story is a reminder that when we trust Jesus with everything, He shows up in ways we could never plan ourselves. REMEMBER... Obedience to Jesus often requires trust before clarity — and that’s where real growth happens. God uses unlikely seasons (like missionary work and hidden years) to prepare us for what’s next. Music becomes powerful when it points people to an encounter with Jesus, not just a moment.

    We The Kingdom - Simple Prayers That Change Everything

    “When we’re desperate, prayers are simple… ‘Lord, save me.’ And when we pray that from our hearts, God does miraculous things.” Jonathan Unthank sits down with We The Kingdom for an honest conversation about faith, temptation, hope, and what it really looks like to follow Jesus day by day.  The guys talk openly about how life doesn’t magically get easier after meeting Jesus — but it does become purposeful, grounded, and full of hope. This episode is a great reminder than when we’re desperate, prayers don’t need fancy words. Sometimes faith begins with just three words — “Lord, save me.”

    Walker Hayes on The Day Everything Changed

    On this week’s Rewrite, Jonathan talks with country-pop artist Walker Hayes about how Jesus completely changed his life. You might know Walker from hits all over the radio, but today he opens up about something far bigger than music: what it’s been like to become a brand-new follower of Jesus after years of doubt, addiction, loss, and trying to hold life together on his own. Walker shares how the Lord met him in the middle of deep brokenness, what sobriety looks like 10 years in, and how being a five-year-old believer has filled him with childlike wonder he never expected. He talks about writing songs from a new perspective, how his family is navigating life on the road, and why he’s learning to “go with the Lord’s flow” instead of forcing his own plans. Whether you love his music, have walked through hard seasons, or are praying for someone you care about to meet Jesus — this conversation will encourage you.

    Everyday Hallelujahs with Phil Wickham

    “You don’t have to clean up before you come to God. The Father is already running toward you.” -Phil Wickham   On this week’s episode of Rewrite, Jonathan Unthank — Music Director at The Light FM — sits down with worship leader and songwriter Phil Wickham to talk about meeting Jesus as a kid in a home full of music, the moment he became friends with Jesus for himself, and why those “everyday hallelujahs” matter more than any spotlight. Phil shares what God is teaching him in this season as a husband and dad, the heart behind Song of the Saints, and why his single “This Is Our God” still means so much to him today. If you’ve ever wondered whether Jesus really welcomes you back after a messy season, Phil’s encouragement here will bless you. He reminds us that the Father runs to meet us — today, right now — and invites us into a deeper walk with Him. Your walk with Jesus deepens in the unseen moments — the quiet hallelujahs of everyday life. God is inviting you to slow down, make space, and let Him sit at the table with you. No matter where you are today, Jesus is ready to meet you with grace, not shame.
