Granger Smith is the author of the New York Times bestseller "Like a River" released back in August of 2023.  After 24 years touring as an award-winning, platinum-selling, country music singer-songwriter, Smith chose to leave the music business to pursue a future in ministry. His 2023 “Like A River” summer tour was his last as he moved into full-time ministry.

Over the course of his groundbreaking music career, Granger has released ten studio albums, one live album, and two EPs. Granger has charted over eight singles on the Billboard country charts, including the number one hit "Backroad Song." 

Today on the podcast, we talk to Granger Smith about his decision to walk away from music, the importance to tell his story, growing up with Texas high school football, how loss can be a teacher after losing his son River to a drowning in 2019 and God's timing.
