In this heartfelt episode, host Wisdom Moon sits down with Christian artist and songwriter Nathan Sheridan for an intimate conversation about his remarkable life journey. In this episode, Nathan opens up about his challenging childhood marked by his parents' struggles with addiction, which ultimately led to him and his sister being raised by their grandparents in Louisiana. Nathan shares the profound impact of early family separation and loss, including a particularly devastating tragedy during his formative years.

The conversation illuminates how God transformed personal tragedy into musical authenticity—a rare glimpse into the crucible that forged one of Christian music's most genuine voices. Industry veterans and fellow artists will find particular value in Nathan's candid reflections on turning pain into purpose, and how his unconventional path created a songwriting perspective that cuts through the noise of manufactured narratives. This raw origin story offers powerful lessons on developing authentic artistry that resonates far beyond typical industry formulas.
