I hear people talk about it all the time, train your child up in the ways of the Lord. Honestly, I get to talk about it a lot, but I know I had it not been for that I wouldn't be here. My parents really planted that seed and that foundation in me at an early age in my life. We were in church every Sunday and every Wednesday. My dad led worship and my mom sang on the worship team with him. Yeah, I grew up in a very Christian home. You have an interesting story in that you were raised in the church amongst a warm and loving community but like so many young, inspired musicians you set out on a journey to become a rock star. I recently spoke to Williams about his road to deliverance, the pressure to keep recording hit songs, and how God can use anything to write your ‘rescue story.’ So much so, that his latest album Rescue Story serves as a reflection of where his life was 20 years ago to now. He hopes his story will speak to the hearts of those who are struggling to get through each day. Williams remembers those troubled days well. Through God’s abundant grace, He had found his true calling. Real and honest in his failings, Williams had a “come to Jesus” moment in 2012 that completely altered and shifted his life. Prior to the success of 2017 breakout hit “Chain Breaker”, the Grammy Award-winning artist spent the better part of two decades toiling in musical obscurity. But he also knows how it feels to be rescued. Zach Williams knows what it’s like to fail.
