Jessie Early joins Brett from Nashville to talk about podcast set-ups, early 2000’s worship music, and how ‘Nothing Else’ came to life. Jessie touches on the importance of being faithful, allowing God to breathe on your work, and writing songs that marry beauty and truth. Jessie emphasizes the need to find new and fresh ways to express ancient truths and to let the song move you. They also discuss the tension between the beauty and truth in worship music and the importance of being connected to a church community.
