Who is the most influential person in your life? For most people, the answer is one of their parents. For some people, it's a mentor who spent countless hours pouring into them and teaching them how to be the person that they are today. Maybe it's a friend. Everybody has somebody who's impacted their life in a significant way. It's inevitable given that we are by nature relational beings. So who influences the influencers? Who mentored the people who are now mentoring the next generation? That's the heart of this new series that John is launching this week. To kick off the series, he has Ross King, an influential songwriter, singer, worship leader, producer, and songwriting mentor in Nashville join him to talk through some of his musical influences as well as the people he points to as having impacted him key ways throughout his life.

175. The Write Stuff
Have you ever thought about writing a book? Do you ever wonder if somebody is going to want to read what you have to say? Do you feel like you're not eloquent enough to communicate your ideas? Believe it or not, so do most authors. Writing books, though, has been a primary form of communicating ideas for thousands of years. Anybody can write a book, but coming up with the idea can be the challenge. Having both recently just written books, Zach and John come together this week to talk through their writing processes, how they got started, and address some of the challenges that occur while writing a book. If you have a story to tell, we want to encourage you to tell it.

For some people, it's a mentor who spent countless hours pouring into them and teaching them how to be the person that they are today. Maybe it's a friend. Everybody has somebody who's impacted their life in a significant way. It's inevitable given that we are by nature relational beings. So who influences the influencers?
