On today's episode of The PRAZOR House Brandon and Mike speak with Josh White of Door of Hope!

Josh began his journey in the Seattle grunge band Manray. After coming to Christ, he began leading worship and met Brandon Ebel (Tooth and Nail Records founder). Together they formed the Christian band Telecast. This led to releasing three albums and found success in the contemporary Christian music charts while touring with bands like David Crowder.

Josh would eventually launch into a solar career while founding Door of Hope church in the Hawthorne district of Portland, Oregon. The church grew rapidly in one of the most unchurched cities in America. As new converts joined the church, Josh and the leadership recognized a large influx of music artists. Eventually, Josh would co-found Deeper Well Records with his worship leader, Evan Way. Door of Hope has been the church home for artists like Josh Garrels, Liz Vice, Holly Ann, Tim Mackie (The Bible Project), Eric Earley (Blitzen Trapper), and many more.

The PRAZOR House audience will be encouraged to hear Josh's testimony and how they have impacted the city with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Door of Hope is a bright light to Portland through solid biblical teaching and artistically creative music.

The guys talk with Nu metal legend Brian "Head" Welch about the band's upcoming release!

In 1993, a group of guys from Bakersfield California formed a band that would inevitably become legendary. Co-founded by Brian, Korn would be the first of many to bring the Nu metal genre to the main stage. The band would eventually sell over 40 million albums and tour the world extensively. Their meteoric rise to fame did not come without many physical, emotional and spiritual wounds. In 2005, Brian gave his life to Christ and left the band. Leaving Korn afforded Brian the chance to grow in his new faith journey.

Today, Brian with his band Love And Death are reinventing the genre and holding nothing back. On February 12th, Love and Death will be streaming their album release concert in support of the new album, Perfectly Preserved. Tickets for the event can be purchased at https://loveanddeath.veeps.com/stream/schedule.
