about giving honor to the God that we serve,
but also to help other people who are on the
journey. Because we are all humans, life has
its seasons, and through its ups and downs
I think we have a faith that we can hold onto
when being encouraged through that. I think
we believe that would be the thing that is
resonating with people, and even sharing some
of those figures it blows us away, that so many
people are connecting with what we do. At the
same time, we get so excited about it, because
that’s the reason we do it… to help people.
[WM] Matt, you mentioned songs. You’re
getting ready to hit the road again, and given
the number of amazing songs that are now
in the United catalog, how do you approach
which songs you’re doing to do? Is there a
master tour list that you craft a set from each
night?
[Matt] I know Joel’s brain never switches off,
so he’s always thinking through what songs
we’re going to do. With a new album out,
and Wonder, an album that we didn’t have
the chance to properly tour, we’re playing a
bunch of those songs. And then just hitting
old songs that we know people love, but also
ones that speak about who we are in our
journey. I think for us the goal is always to be
as authentic and real as we can about who we
are and what we’re about. I think the night will
reflect that. Hopefully we’re fun and we create
an atmosphere of faith. People can walk into
whatever place that we might be in and they
might be somewhere at that specific time that
they don’t want to be (in their own journey). But
that they leave knowing that God loves them
and their life can be everything and more – all
that they hoped it would be. And know that if
they put Jesus first and trust God - that they’re
