EDDIE ESPINOSA is a prolific songwriter, educator, worship leader, musician and composer.
One of his most famous songs is “Change my heart, Oh God” which has been sung and performed in churches all over the world and by countless vocalists since 1982.
We discuss the magic of one of Eddie's greatest musical influences - The Beatles - and how their songs influenced his writing. Our conversation gets deep about the creation of “Change My Heart, Oh God” and he takes us right inside the moment the song was created. Eddie also gives us a glimpse into why and how this song has managed to spread organically from church to church and person to person over the years.
