The spring of his freshman year of college, Ben Rathert was giving serious thought to his faith. Did he really buy into all the church teachings he'd grown up with? What were the consequences of not doing so? Well, Ben's answers to those questions between then and now have evolved, and on this week's episode he looks back at a one of his famous volumes he burned during that time of questioning and how, in a pretty big way, he was talking to himself. Coming from early 2003, these songs focus on themes of faith, love, and rebirth, and their placement on this volume has become clear in the intervening 15 years.
