The Newsboys have been one of the most successful and recognizable Christian bands for four decades. What have they learned over their time as leaders in the contemporary Christian music scene? And what are their thoughts on why so many musicians are deconstructing and deconverting from the faith? Is there something wrong with the CCM that needs addressing? In this interview, I talk with lead singer Michael Tait and keyboardist Jeff Frankenstein.
