Welcome to our show! Our host Kerby Anderson will be broadcasting remotely from our Peoria, IL affiliate station, WPEO. And Penna Dexter will be manning the desk at home in Dallas. She will welcome two bands. First is Jonathan Buckner & Zach Alvis of Chosen Road, a chart-topping Appalachian bluegrass gospel band. They are bringing us their much-anticipated new album – released 6/23/23, It Never Gets Old. The second is Steele Croswhite. They’ll talk about his music and ministry at The Rock Church.

For eight years she served as Marlin Maddoux’s co-host on Point of View and for two years she co-hosted a daily drive time live broadcast on the Dallas-based Criswell Radio Network.
Penna’s interest in conservative politics and the issues that affect the family began when she was a child working on political campaigns with her parents. She graduated from the University of Southern California with a degree in International Relations. She spent 8 years in the banking industry. Penna and her husband Todd are members of Trinity Presbyterian Church, they have three adult children.
Throughout their career, Chosen Road has garnered seven Top 10 bluegrass radio singles, including the #1 hit “When I Get Home,” and the group has performed on stages alongside such greats as Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, Dailey & Vincent, and The Isaacs. With deep roots in the Baptist tradition, the band has an ongoing partnership with the North American Mission Board’s (NAMB) Church Replant and Revitalization Team, where they help increase awareness about the number of churches closing their doors each year.
Signing his first record deal at the age of 21, Steele Croswhite began his career as the lead vocalist, songwriter and guitarist for the acclaimed rock band Silvercrush. While the group earned Billboard chart success and toured with such artists as Sheryl Crow, Foo Fighters and Maroon 5, Croswhite’s life was falling apart. He drifted from his Christian upbringing, lured by the trappings of fame and reeling from his father’s untimely death. Encouraged by his sister to visit The Rock Church, it was there Croswhite experienced the true grace of Jesus Christ and rededicated his life to the Lord. Today, he serves as a pastor and worship leader at the church.
