Dadville with Dave Barnes and Jon McLaughlin

Matthew West is many things. He's a singer/songwriter, author, podcaster, husband, and father. However, he is not a professional baseball player. In this week's episode we dig into his backstory, talk about raising teenagers, and what to do when you go shark diving without a cage.  Check out Matthew's new book, The God Who Stays: Life Looks Different with Him by Your Side here: https://shop.matthewwest.com/collections/in-stock-items/products/the-god-who-stays-book-autographed-or-standard-pre-order Thanks to our sponsors!
