Third Day Original Member Talks Live Online About New Book

Acworth, GA. (Top40 Charts/ Sony Records) - Billy Wilkins, author and one of the three original members of the internationally-acclaimed Christian band Third Day, speaks openly and honestly about his own struggle with insomnia and anxiety medications. He is scheduled for a live interactive interview on Monday, November 24, 2008 at https://ObscureGenius.com/

While regularly taking a popular sleep medication, he decided that there must be a better way to relax than risking drug dependency, and he began searching the scriptures for the peace that he needed to rest effectively. Wilkins soon found so many scriptures that answered and supported his spiritual quest, he soon began to realize that this level of peace was God's desire for all of His children. He began to chronicle his findings, while following his musical instincts and researching music therapy, and was soon on the path to developing the Wesley Sleep Program.

The Wesley Sleep Program consists of an audio CD and a companion book. Both are inspired by spiritual concepts, Biblical principles and the inspired musical instincts of the author, Billy Wilkins.

Billy Wilkins lives in a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia and has had a diverse background in both music and education since childhood. He is a professional musician and economics educator with one degree in business administration and one in secondary business education. He spent over a year researching the Biblical principles and music therapy techniques that have formed the Wesley Sleep Program. His hope is that his experiences, research, and talent have led him to create a program that will help many people to access a deep peace and rest that he has found through God.

Billy was one of the three original members of the internationally-acclaimed Christian band Third Day, writing and touring with the band during its formation and early years. He can be seen in two of the band's 2007 DVD releases, Chronology I and Chronology II. When remaining with the band became more of a career decision than a side ministry, he left to pursue education and the other paths he felt God had prepared for him.

He remains a professional songwriter, studio musician, and performer, working with Third Day and other talented musicians since his departure from the band. It is his natural gift of music, along with his desire to research and teach in an educational environment, that has contributed to the unique concept of the Wesley Sleep Program.
