Don’t Stop Praying: How God Rewrites Our Story with Matthew West

from Rewrite

“When doubt creeps in, one of the most powerful things you can do is look back and remember what God has already done.” - Matthew West Matthew West joins Jonathan Unthank on this episode of Rewrite for a powerful conversation about faith that becomes personal—and the God who keeps showing up. From growing up as a pastor’s kid to watching a Billy Graham crusade that changed everything, Matthew shares the story of how Jesus first captured his heart and how that moment continues to shape his life, his parenting, and his music. You’ll hear about the “blue couch” where it all started, the joy of baptizing his own daughter, and why he says God’s dreams are always better than our own. 3 Takeaways: Faith has to become personal – growing up in a Christian home is a gift, but salvation happens when you choose Jesus. God’s plans > ours – even as a dreamer, Matthew has seen that God’s vision for his life is always bigger and better than his own. Look back to move forward – remembering the moments when God showed up gives us strength to trust Him again.
