Here’s the third and final part of Nevaeh. “Joy.” Hope it blesses you. By the way, I’m premiering a new song Friday at 5pm Central Time. This is one I co-wrote with my good friend “Joseph Daniel.” We did “1,000 lifetimes” “Worthwhile” and all the “Eyes of Love - EP” together. Hope to see you then! Love you all!

I’m not even religious, in fact I’m an atheist and always will be, but the impact He has had on you and your life, and the self-expression you portray through Him is strikingly beautiful. I can never get enough of it. Thank you Nathan ❤️

@Noah for you it is evangelization for non believers or people with other religions it is pushing your beliefs.
And for them it can come over as if you try to use evangelization as an excuse to push your beliefs.
Which it actually is tbh.
