I just saw Bill in concert the night after in Brandon. He talked to me before and after gig and his honesty and vulnerability did NOT surprise me but it was refreshing! I have loved Bill’s music for 5 years or so. He is too honest to be fully embraced by the evangelical community. That’s sad to say. We put on our plastic smiles and “attend” church. Bill wants none of that b.s. I think that’s awesome and Christ like. Keep playin Bill!
