Wow...i love Third Day's music. I am a little surprised. I am not much of a country music fan but i can understand how Mac would be good at that. As Christians, i think we should be supportive and not judgemental about this change. Look at our own lives...what if we desired a change in our lives and our friends judged our decision? This guy puts his heart into whatever he does and we need to bless him on his journey. Each of us has a destiny to fill so who are we to question anothers? What if this is exactly God's plan and we critisize it? Not good people! Let's trust in Jesus and work on getting our own paths right. My wish for Mac is for the same greatness in everything he does. I pray that people are saved through this "side trip" and that he never loses sight of what is truly important. Thanks for the article.

He's not "changed" guys. He said it himself in the interview that his life (and God) isn't different on given days. A Christian can sing love songs to his wife, talk about liking Georgia - there's nothing wrong with these songs. The only song I have any issues with on this record is Saturday Night, while I don't have any problem with a Christian relaxing and having fun after a week of work, I do have a problem with a Christian partying in such a way that he's "Tryin' to find forgiveness for what I did Saturday." I would like Mac to explain that lyric. Otherwise, there's nothing wrong with recording one fun album. Don't write him off after he's given us literally years and years of Godly material.
