Summary

Chris Tomlin sits down with Bobby to talk about the unconventional journey that has led him to be one of the most successful Christian artists. Chris has an impressive resume with 17 #1 single, 29 top ten hits (more than any other Christian artist), and 12 million albums sold. He is also 1 of only 4 artists ever to receive 1 Billion digital radio streams, alongside Justin Timberlake, Pitbull and Garth Brooks. Chris shares stories about growing up in a small town in Texas, how love of music began in the church and how nervous he was the first time he performed. Bobby and Chris talk about how he handles his success, how he deals with fame and how he sometimes gets treated differently by people because he’s a Christian artist.
