Michael Card's lyrics trace Simon Peter's moment of surrender—nets abandoned, pride drifting away—in a song about spiritual freedom through letting go.

The episode opens with host Rockin' Ron introducing the Rewind program, which is devoted to classic Christian hits from the past. The first set of songs announced includes Bob Bennett's 'Yours Alone,' Keith Green's 'You Are the One,' and Scott Wesley Brown's 'The House of the Lord.' The host notes that they are 'going back a little ways' for these selections, establishing an nostalgic tone for the program. He then introduces a second set including Chris Christian's 'Mountaintop,' B.J. Thomas's 'Home is Where I Belong,' and Dion's 'The House of the Lord.' The segment on Glen Campbell transitions from a reference to his secular hit 'Rhinestone Cowboy' before announcing his Christian recording 'Jesus and Me.' First Call's harmonies are highlighted with 'Wannabe,' followed by Michael Card's 'The Things We Leave Behind.' Before the Card song, the host reads Luke 12:15—'Take care and watch out for all greediness, because your life is not found in the abundance of your possessions'—framing the song's theological message. The narration lists biblical figures who left things behind to follow Jesus: Peter his nets, Matthew his tax table, James and John leaving their father, the woman at the well her bucket, and the blind man his cloak. Michael Card's lyrics then dramatize Simon Peter's call, describing him as 'foolishly wise' and tending his nets before Jesus calls and everything drifts away. The chorus reflects on the freedom found in releasing possessions and following Jesus. The host comments that 'anything Michael Card does goes right to the heart' before transitioning. Rich Mullins is featured with 'One True Love,' followed by Twyla Paris with 'Running to the Rescue.' Andrew Peterson's 'Chasing Song' is introduced and played, cataloguing biblical figures—David chasing God's heart, Jonah catching the sea, Paul chasing Christians until his blindness—before arriving at the line 'he chased my sin to Calvary and caught it on that hill.' The host closes by announcing three final songs: Matt Marr's 'Leave a Light On,' Greg Long's 'In the Waiting,' and Michael English's 'Heaven.' He signs off by crediting Angel 95 and Christian Media Spotlight Radio as the program's broadcast homes.
