Chris Acres performs 'Grace'
Guest Chris Acres performs his original song 'Grace,' which he says the church has been singing; the song's vocals are diarized separately from his speaking turns. Afterward he calls hearing a congregation sing a song he wrote one of the most 'sublime' experiences, a seed planted for others to connect with God through rather than for himself. He adds that he and his fiancee have begun recording worship songs together in his home-office 'studio.'
