"All In" Excerpt: Why Lamb of God Composer Rob Gardner Doesn’t Believe Thomas Really Doubted At All

In preparation for Easter, this week’s All In podcast is an interview with my dear friend, Latter-day Saint composer and arranger Rob Gardner, whose sacred music oratorio Lamb of God is performed by choirs and orchestras throughout the world each year.
