The books of the bible that highlight the journey through the wilderness for the Israelites and Jesus have enough drama in them to make a movie.

On this week’s episode Steve chats with AC’s own Troy aka Scribe Music about his new album, Scribe & the Wildlings and how the contrast of Jesus and the Israelites time in the wilderness directly influenced his new project.
