Zach Williams opens up about his new album "Jesus Loves" and why he believes his music is meant for misfits, prodigals and church kids alike. In this interview, he reflects on 10 years in Christian music, shares the heart behind songs like “Hated” and “Killed a Man,” and talks candidly about burnout, faith and grace. Williams also explains why the gospel meets people where they are – not where they think they should be.
