Speak to becoming a Christian, and then how did you keep your focus on the right things when you were a superstar? I mean, in the music industry, it’s so hard to maintain that. And we’re, uh, looking forward to hearing more in this conversation. Uh, his new album, uh, which does reveal his great loss, but also his hope in Christ, is called Life After Death. Um, he was twice named Artist of the Year at the Dove Awards, and we could go on with his list of accomplishments. He’s a singer, a rapper, a songwriter, former member of the hit band DC Talk. TobyMac is a Contemporary Christian artist. Jim: And today we’re gonna talk to Toby about that experience ’cause he, too, lost his eldest son, and I want people to lean into this because, although it’s painful, it does have such redemption to trust the Lord, love the Lord, and move forward. I think David, King David, like, uh, maybe TobyMac here, our guest, has poured his heart out to God in his music after the loss of his eldest son. I love that great verse in Romans 8:28, “that all things work for good to those who love the Lord and are called by his name.” But sometimes it’s so cloudy you can’t feel that.
Jim Daly: John, God doesn’t promise us an easy road in this life. Let’s go ahead and join Jim Daly with that conversation.
What you’re about to hear was recorded before a live audience, a group of men in Florida, and our special guest was TobyMac. Your host is Focus president and author Jim Daly, and I’m John Fuller. John Fuller: That’s TobyMac, and he’s our guest today on Focus on the Family, sharing how he’s experienced the hope and goodness of Christ, even through tragedy.
