Through raw lyrics and honest questions, Nashville-based Christian music singer/songwriter and worship leader Shaylee Simeone deepens her understanding of Christ’s sacrifice through the realization that she, too, is a part of the redemptive work He is doing. Inspired by moments when she felt unworthy to be a worship leader, Simeone likens God’s work in her to a now-beautiful cathedral, built from bone and dust.
