How one family’s tragedy ultimately revolutionized contemporary Christian music.

And what was life really like for a major contemporary Christian band in those early days?

Join Matthew on his amazing personal journey from tragedy to dynamic faith that helped set contemporary Christian music on fire. And discover how God chooses whom he will to accomplish great and mighty acts.

My 2nd Chapter by Matthew Ward
Excellent read! Love this man & his remarkable voice! So anointed, like Jesus Himself singing to me! Goes right to my heart! Thank you, Matthew, for filling me with your words & your music, washing over me from the Word.

Great Book
I really enjoyed this book for many reasons. I was introduced to 2nd Chapter's music about 15 years ago and have loved their music as well as Annie and Matthew's solo albums since then. I have also had the privilege of meeting both of them in person before and so it is very nice to learn more about their childhood and how the group came into being. God is truly faithful and has a plan for each of us and that is reflected in so many ways in this book through both humor and tragedy.
