On Phantom Toolbooth- Where so many of us may have seen nothing but chaos and destruction, John Michael Talbot sees a beautiful city.

Home sweet home – as great as it was to tour with JMT, Terry Talbot and band, it is fantastic to be home again. It is wonderful to be able to share the gospel, and to play music while doing so. But my vocation is to marriage, and my greatest responsibility is to be a […]

Well the Monk Rock Tour is on hiatus until 2006 now. The bus has gone back to Nashville. The truck back to Springfield and all the gear safely stowed away at the Monastery. I’ve returned safely to Buffalo. Joe Hand by this time is on a plane bound for Australia (that boy never stops working). […]
