April May Gems - Apr 22 2025 ep48 - SCARS Interv with Jules Riding

A few nights ago I had a dream. In the dream, a man by the name of Jules Riding (of whom I knew nothing about) was sitting across from me in the Fresh Fm Studios in Nelson. I woke up and emailed this Jules person and two days later, I was interviewing him, just hours before he shot off to Hokitika to begin his New Zealand Tour! I had no idea he was a NZ household name, having produced 12 albums, two of which have been awarded 'Gospel Album of the Year' at the NZ Music Awards, nor did I know the depth of his compassion for those in need of hope, particularly those who are suffering with depression or wandering through life as though in a wilderness. May this interview bless your heart. May his songs encourage you and his incredible story too! I consider it a privilege to have met this ‘man of my dreams’ (lol) in person and that I get to share him with all of you, right here, my faithful listeners. Enjoy.
