1KHO 769: The Courage to Keep Building | Colton Dixon, Build a Boat

Colton Dixon has spent years singing about faith, grit, and holding on when the road in front of you does not make sense yet, and this conversation on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast with host Ginny Yurich gets right to the heart of that. From American Idol (WATCH PIANO MAN ON THE RED GRAND PIANO!!) to fatherhood, touring, the staying power of “Build a Boat,” and the kind of courage it takes to keep showing up for your calling, this episode is full of the stuff that lasts. This particular conversation is extra unique because it happened in person and Ginny's daughters joined in with some of their own questions. It's personal and funny and it reminds you that a meaningful life is often built before the evidence arrives. The episode also includes a special performance featuring Colton on lead vocals, Brooklyn (13) on backup vocals, and Vivian (16) on guitar.
