Steven Curtis Chapman joins Crosswalk Talk's Michael Foust to discuss his powerful new rendition of America the Beautiful with Chris Janson, released in honor of America's 250th birthday. Chapman shares the deeply personal story behind the song, reflects on his Purple Heart grandfather's legacy, and explains why he believes social media algorithms are fueling division in America. He also opens up about his hope for the country, the importance of gratitude and kindness, and what he wants listeners to take away from the new anthem. Plus, Chapman looks back on his remarkable career, his Speechless anniversary tour, and the songs that surprised him the most.
