John Cooper: 我分享了我对信仰的旅程,以及我母亲去世如何加强了我与耶稣的关系,并最终促使我从事音乐事业。我谈到了Skillet乐队的组建,以及我对美国现状的看法,以及我希望我的新书《软弱、虚弱和觉醒:真理如何拯救美国免受乌托邦式毁灭》能够激励其他人站出来发声。Skillet乐队早期并不成功,直到2006年才开始真正走红,这期间经历了长期的艰辛奋斗。2006年在加州的一次演出中,我们首次感受到乐队走红,这让我感到非常感恩。Skillet乐队的音乐风格融合了硬摇滚、流行和基督教元素,目标受众并非仅限于基督教徒。成功与否并不影响一个人的品格,谦逊源于良好的品格和对上帝的信赖。 Shannon Bream: 我与John Cooper讨论了他的新书《软弱、虚弱和觉醒:真理如何拯救美国免受乌托邦式毁灭》。我们谈论了他对美国现状的担忧,以及他为什么认为有必要站出来发声。我们还讨论了他如何将个人的痛苦经历转化为帮助他人的动力,以及他如何看待信仰、真理和社会和谐之间的关系。
