On Air With David Duane: Interview w/ Jonathan McDaniel & Jonathan Nelson

Jonathan Nelson is free from fear.  He is brave and he is bold.  As a father, husband, brother, son of a preacher, minister, worship leader and artist/producer, for all that he swiftly embraces with grace, it is no wonder that his fifth and latest release is entitled FEARLESS.  For his Light Records/Entertainment One Music (eOne Music) debut, Jonathan set the tone in an audacious way with a live recording at his home church in Sunrise, Florida, The Faith Center, a self-described “melting pot of sound.”  FEARLESS is anchored in the call and response of praise and worship, alongside the participatory style of audience inclusion.  Through the God-inspired songs of hope, inspiration and strength, Jonathan is confident his listeners will receive the music by “embracing the messages, melodies and songs. Activate the lyrics and expect God to change their situation.”
