In this heartfelt episode, we sit down with worship leaders, songwriters, and father-daughter duo Chuck & Lily Hooten. From Lily’s first terrifying worship set to becoming a full-time musician, to Chuck’s wisdom on parenting, worship, and surrender, this conversation is packed with encouragement, laughter, and truth.

We talk about overcoming fear, living a lifestyle of worship, why surrender is the real definition of success, and how to help others step into freedom. Plus, Lily shares details about her upcoming song release Had a Dream and her Chattanooga show with Gabe Baker.

Whether you’re a worship leader, parent, or someone learning to trust God more deeply—this one’s for you.
