There's so much about this that we should always be talking about. There are so many layers. And it happens every day, all the time.
I take every role seriously. Personally, I never look at any role as Michael White. I've done that my entire life.

With music, I'm still learning. I'm still getting used to it.
Take away material prosperity; take away emotional highs; take away miracles and healing; take away fellowship with other believers; take away church; take away all opportunity for service; take away assurance of salvation; take away the peace and joy of the Holy Spirit... Yes! Take it all, all, far, far away. And what is left? Tragically, for many believers there would be nothing left. For does our faith really go that deep? Or do we, in the final analysis, have a cross-less Christianity?
