Ep. 22: Granger Smith on Yee Yee Day, Mission Work, and His New Children's Book

Live from the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, Dan and Reid host former country singer, now minister Granger Smith out in God's Country. This episode was taped backstage at the 2024 iHeart Country Festival, where the guys talked with Granger about topics ranging from his Yee Yee brand, to ministry, to writing his new children's book, Up Toward The Light. Granger goes in depth on what it was like taking his son on his first dove hunt and daughter on her first mission trip. He shares his godly wisdom with the guys and explains that while his exit from music wasn't an easy one, he now has "Peace Like a River" over his transition into ministry full time.
