  • Episode 297 | John James | My Story of Hope
    May 13 2026

    Today’s guest is no stranger to this show — and if you grew up on Christian rock, he’s definitely no stranger to you either.

    He’s a two-time guest, the co-founder and original lead singer of Newsboys, and one of the most recognizable voices in Christian music history — John James is back with us.

    From chart-topping fame and sold-out arenas to a devastating personal collapse behind the scenes, John’s journey is anything but ordinary. At the height of success, while the music was reaching millions, his private world was unraveling. Career, marriage, identity — shattered. What followed was a descent into rock bottom… and a redemption story only God could write.

    His upcoming book, Newsboy: My Story of Hope and Second Chances, releasing June 2, is his most raw and unfiltered account yet. In it, John pulls back the curtain on fame, failure, shame, and the life-changing grace that rebuilt him from the ground up.

    Welcome back John James!

    Today on Christian Music Guys, we’ve got a fun and real conversation lined up with Derek Harsch — the guy behind the viral Sunday Worship Fails and a key part of the Outcry Collective. Derek has built a platform that brings humor, honesty, and a behind-the-scenes look at church worship culture, connecting with thousands through moments every worship leader can relate to. We’re diving into how it all started, what he’s learned along the way, and why authenticity in worship matters now more than ever.
