Show Notes:79. Andrew Peterson — Writing, Community, and the Mystery of Making

Andrew Peterson is a recording artist, songwriter, producer, filmmaker, publisher and award-winning author of The Wingfeather Saga.

He is also the founder and president of The Rabbit Room, which fosters Christ-centered community and spiritual formation through music, story and art.

Peterson has also been named “one of the foremost singer/songwriters around” and has received multiple “best album of the year” nods from critics along with two Dove Award nominations.

Taking his hits and fan favorites on the road, Peterson’s touring draws capacity crowds at venues around the world, including several sold-out events at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.

I had a chance to review an advance copy of his soon to be released book, Adorning the Dark: Thoughts on Community, Calling, and the Mystery of Making. Andrew joins me to talk about creativity, community, writing, and the mystery of making.

    • For the last year this kid has trained, often five nights a week. I told him I would never make him, but if he wanted, I would find a way to get him there. His hard work paid off. He had to compete at a higher belt level and still won his three matches to take first in the bracket. Some many great lessons. @dynastyjiujitsu
