The Bearded Disciple

The Bearded Disciple is the music ministry of Chad W. Gott, a Marine Corps veteran, Christian author, small group leader, and co-host of the Rooted Discipleship podcast. His songs draw from Scripture, personal testimony, and the messages behind his devotional books—encouraging listeners to draw closer to Jesus and follow Him one faithful step at a time. Chad develops the lyrics and creative direction with AI assistance, using Suno to generate the musical arrangements and vocals. Released through Rooted Discipleship, these songs share his heart for discipleship: knowing God, trusting His promises, and living out our faith each day. One step. One prayer. One faithful yes. Walk On!
