Third Day - Definition and Overview

Third Day is a Christian rock band formed in Atlanta, Georgia during the 1990s. The band was founded by lead singer Mac Powell and guitarist Mark Lee. The name is a reference to the biblical account of Jesus rising from the dead on the Sunday following his crucifixion.
