Tyler Hubbard, formerly of Florida Georgia Line, credits a year-long commitment to reading the entire Bible with drawing him closer to Jesus and reshaping his daily life. Though he grew up attending church, Hubbard had never read Scripture cover to cover before beginning the practice, which initially felt intimidating. The daily engagement prompted him to apply biblical wisdom to modern challenges, including questioning his relationship with technology and social media. His wife’s passionate faith journey provided support throughout the effort. The country star now regularly uses his platform to encourage others in their spiritual walks, linking this public witness directly to his personal Scripture commitment and the transformative lessons discovered within.
In recent months, several prominent country music artists have publicly shared how reading the Bible has reshaped their lives and careers, marking a notable trend in the genre. Biblical wisdom has offered these artists a framework for addressing anxiety and finding purpose. Tyler Hubbard, Oliver Anthony, and Warren Zeiders have each described transformative experiences tied to Scripture, speaking openly about faith in ways that resonate with their audiences.
Tyler Hubbard recently committed to reading the entire Bible in one year, a goal he pursued despite finding the task initially intimidating. Though he grew up attending church, he had never read the whole Bible before. His wife’s passionate faith journey supported his effort, and he expected the completion to bring both pride and divine lessons.
Despite growing up in church, Tyler Hubbard had never read the entire Bible until committing to a transformative one-year reading goal.
Through daily Bible reading, Hubbard drew closer to Jesus and began applying Scripture to everyday life. The practice prompted him to question modern forms of idol worship, including his relationship with his phone. He has frequently used his platform to encourage faith and talk about God, despite not being a worship artist.
Oliver Anthony’s public transformation has been equally visible. After his song “Rich Men North of Richmond” reached number one on iTunes and drew massive crowds to his first post-viral concert at a North Carolina farmers market, he used his platform to share the gospel.
During an appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, Anthony described his conversion to Christianity, read Bible verses directly to Rogan, and called Scripture timeless truth. He committed to quitting weed, alcohol, and anger, offering to give up personal achievements for God.
Anthony emphasized that all people are sinners who idolize something, advocating a servant mindset over personal desires. Anthony described his emotional breakdown as feeling like a child unable to find parents, a moment of profound hopelessness that led to his transformation.
Warren Zeiders, who amassed 2.7 billion US streams and secured his first Country radio number one with “Pretty Little Poison,” released the single “Only Bible” following his album about personal transformation. The song explores the idea that believers’ actions may be the only exposure some people have to God.
His lyrics highlight the tension between a broken, saved state and holiness. These artists illustrate how Bible reading has prompted introspection and lifestyle changes, reflecting broader faith themes gaining traction in country music.
