Summary

Tye Tribbett is a Grammy Award-winning gospel artist who infuses his songs with scripture, teaching listeners about God as he sings. In 1996 he created “Greater Anointing,” a choir of his family and friends, and ever since, he’s been writing Jesus-focused music to start conversations, not condemn.  Tye talks with the Perrys about humility, ambition, and what it means to stay kingdom-focused in an industry obsessed with viral success. They unpack the challenges of today’s gospel music scene – from sensationalism to the pressure to perform – and the importance of slowing down for ministry moments and walking closely with God.

0:17.8

And I really wanted her to tell it.

0:18.9

I'm gonna say it real succinctly.

0:20.1

You know how they moved to my city. I correctly did not. And so I was at somebody's house because I was staying with somebody until I could get my first check to put down on an apartment. Okay. I'm in the little office room. They didn't turn into a bedroom because I'm living in there with a few times, a few times and like a bunch of systematic theology books. And so I'm sitting there on my
