Today I'm so excited to share with you a conversation that Josh and I had with Colton Dixon.

Colton reached a level of success in music that many have only dreamed of.

First as a top contestant on American Idol, followed by a major record deal and mega hits songs.

Yet like many of us have experienced, life can be full of surprises, disappointments, and transformation.

So today, Colton shares his story with Joshami, and talks about his journey, his questions,

and ultimately how he saw God's faithfulness in a new and fresh way at the end of a difficult

season.

Welcome to this special conversation episode of the First of Team Podcast. Hey Colton, and thank so much for making the time to be with Josh and I today.

even in the midst of this pandemic that you're experiencing personally. So thanks

for being here to share your perspective with this.

And thanks so much for having me.

Really is an honor to be with you guys today.

your life leading up to that point and how God's been using you

when I know in such profound ways since then, building this career in music.

Yeah, I guess I'll start at the beginning.

My sister and I, Skyler, we were born and raised in a Christian home,
