I think that if we want to attribute to God, we have to take time to hang out with Him and listening to Him. So that's the biggest thing, I have to be in the Word and reading it and listening to God and taking time to spend time with Him and that is just the basics things. That and pray and make sure there's guys around you that love you enough to tell you to stop being a jerk.
CT: How do you feel that you have grown while working on this album?
PW: Those kind of "how have you grown questions" are always challenging for me. I definitely know I have, there has been a lot of growth and challenges to overcome. I feel like I'm growing even in answering of these questions with you. I feel like the Lord is teaching me stuff right now, you know?
I have never been able to answer these questions, it's so hard for me, because I feel like every moment is something special and something new where God is teaching me: "Phil, stop this! Phil, look at what I'm doing here! Phil, look at how I've blessed you or, Phil, remember Me in this."
CT: So not just though the album then.
PW: Yeah, it's not like I'm some super holy guy. I definitely am being reminded during the day of His goodness and His blessings. It's also something different and awesome that He gives me or shows me.
CT: What's your personal favorite song off the Cannons album?
PW: I don't have a favourite on the record. There were other songs I wanted to put on the CD. I definitely wanted there to be 12 songs and I kinda knew what I wanted each song to be about before I had them written. Like number 1, I wanted it to be this kind of song, and number 2, 3 and so on.
I really feel that each song fulfils a purpose. My favourite one to perform live is True Love. I call it my "Gospel in song-song". It's like Easter every time I sing it. It's the gospel, but it doesn't just end there. When I sing Jesus is alive, Jesus is alive, He rose again! I can't help but help but smile every time I sing it; I've sung it so many times now. It always connects with the crowd too.
There is something powerful in the Gospel; we're told that the Gospel is power and the path to salvation. So when I can sing it out to a crowd over a PA, it's really amazing.
