Hi y'all. Congratulations on the nomination on your book. I'm sorry it did not win, but I can tell you it's still winning across America. The Lord is using it and you all in a mighty way which is far better than a fan award. I feel the need to say this and I hope you do not take it in a negative way, but just remember Jesus never won an award, He never was even nominated. His message was rejected by his own people and his stage was a cross on Golgotha. You may never win an award from man but your great reward will be in heaven when you hear the words well done good and faithful servant. Granger you get it. You get what most Christians never get. It's not about the applause of men but about obedience to Christ. I pray for you and your family daily. God Bless

So perfectly said❤

I watched with my husband , I told him " That man right there , is survivor, a true witness we can overcome anything with God's Love " a winner gets an award, a real winner makes an imprint on our ❤️, and lives. Proud of you both.

Granger and Amber. The - like a River book is an award to those of us that bought and read it. It was beautiful we love y’all ❤

I listen to Arise with Amber every week! She’s helped me grow closer to Jesus each time!

You guys looked great! Amber looked fabulous in blue! Award or not it's about the God moment. Glorifying him in all we do and go through. Being a witness.

Glad you guys went to K- Love Awards even though you didn't win! Just being there looked awesome! 😀 So fun that London got a picture with Phil Wickham ! Way to go , girl! 😀😍🤩😎📸

You guys are such strong human beings. To have lost a child and still push through and take on life like winners ! Your family is an inspiration

You're a winner, Granger. You're a child of God!

K-Love is the only radio station my hubby and I listen to. It brought us together.

This brings to mind a different awards show where an actress celebrated the fact that she had an abortion in order to make a movie that she won an award for. So different to know that you mourned the death of your son and celebrate his life. God bless you! Thank you for your example!

I felt like you won .. I know you have lost so much but what a impact you have made on so many and such a inspiration to so many I wish the award had been yours but so much more you have meant to so many thank you for all you have gave

That was great guys! London really enjoyed it. Good experience for everyone. Yee Yee

It's a winner in our eyes. God Bless

To be able to witness the K-Love Fan nominations & award ceremony through London brought us great joy. Her brown eyes lit up for her Daddy & her love for Jesus. Always love Pauls questions, Amber is wearing blue as it looks like a river.

I think God is leading you back into music but a country gospel flavor - that is your gift with an opportunity to share music and preach to an audience that needs Jesus desperately - don’t ever give up that beautiful music that God placed in your heart

I listen to Arise With Amber as well as your podcast too, Granger! And my husband bought me your book for my birthday and I just finished it. I cried all the way through but I finished it. God bless and continually comfort your family ❤

Thanks for sharing such a special moment with us. Blessings.

You’re just getting started! God has big plans! Welcome to the K-LOVE family!! Keep your heart open. Christian music might be in your future! Zach Williams brings God to country music expanding His message in this genre. Don’t shut out the possibility of the graph into that branch ❤️❤️

Hey Granger, I am a K-LOVE fan and I’m also a Granger fan. Nothing has changed for me. I voted for you, but it’s all in Gods timing not ours. Thank you for the video.

Hello Smith family thank you taking us along with you! I love you all hugs take care many blessings

Thank you for sharing this special event with us.

Congratulations on being nominated ! You guys are winners in all of us! Stay strong and God bless !

Granger you are a winner 🏆🥇 with our King Jesus Christ 😇🙏 we love y'all and Amber's podcast beautiful y'all are touching so many lives and your doing what God has called you both to do even tho the circumstances 😭 God always has a bigger and more beautiful plan, Amen Hallelujah 🙏🙌💯❤️

Your book makes you a winner for God! And that is the grand prize. God bless you all!

Do some collaborations with unshamed and some christain,homestead,country,family "faithbased" podcasters ladies and gents!! Keep them coming!

Congratulations to you and amber for beautiful country music in Nashville!👏👍🎸🎶🇺🇲🤟🦋❤️

I'm a Klove fan AND a Granger fan!! I loved your book!!!! ❤

I get that you want to honor God in everything you do, please don’t feel that you can never be recognized for a book or song. You are honoring God with your lives.

It's funny you should mention the K-Love fans are not Granger fans. I admittedly don't know any of your music, but I am a fan because of the podcast! I heard about you through Arms Family Homestead and have stuck around for a few years now because of your faith and family values.

Love you guys, what a great testimony

This K-LOVE fan is also a granger and smith family fan. I honestly hadn’t listened to country music for years because I started a new life and didn’t want to be reminded of my x so when I started watching the smiths it was shortly after River and then I started looking up all Your songs and fell in love with your songs. So back to country and Christian music❤.

You both are winners regardless!! You both looked great!! Granger’s comment, “Y’all check out that Arise with Amber. That girl is good!!” lol Y’all are so cute!!

Congrats on the nomination for your book, "Like A River"! ❣️👏🙏🏻😇🌟👍🤗

You both and your beautiful family are such a blessing .

You won in my eyes!! Love your family so much and such an inspiration!!

This is so cool! Congrats!! I am writing a children's book on finding your purpose & I want to turn the story of making the book, part of my journey, and turn it into a movie. Your song Forever Forward has changed my life & inspired some parts of the book & to do the movie on it. I lost 2 sisters in 2023, lost 2 jobs, small biz, and my family is fractured due to pandemic/ lock downs. I saw your movie Moon Rise as I was writing the book and my vision for this idea become more clear. I would love to see if I could use your song Forever Forward when I make the movie. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing this venture. ❤ the path, you'll are on. May Christ WORD, stay deep within you'll. Pray 🙏

You guys looked fabulous. Voted for Like a River and listen every Sunday Am to Arise with Amber while im getting ready for church ❤❤

Granger and Amber y’all looked handsome and beautiful. Thank you for taking us with you. We voted and you’re a winner in our eyes and heart ! God willing Amber y’all will be up for everything with your book and podcast. Love y’all. 💗❤️💗❤️❤️❤️🦋🎈🙏YEEYEE

hi, I love watching your videos ❤❤❤. Also congratulations Granger!!🎊🎊❤

Definitely voted for my first K Love, didn’t watch, but wanted to extend a vote you the book that brought me to know Jesus Christ.

I am a Klove fan, and I am also a Granger and a Smith fan!

❤

Yeeyee

❤🦋

I’m a K-LOVE fan and a Granger fan! 😊 I hope to hear each of you speak sometime. Are either of you coming to Michigan?

One day I hope I can buy "Like A River"

Granger, Just keep glorifying Christ in all things.. earthly Awards dont matter. Lets go for the eternal award where you get to have River back, and I get to have my brother back along with my grandparents and your father sitting at Jesus feet. I know there is a lesson in Faith in loss, but im not quite seeing it yet. The more I read the Bible, the more I have a million questions.

❤❤❤✝️

Your word is in heaven.🎉

I enjoyed watching this video 😊

Congrats!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

I voted for you!

I voted for your book.

Granger, I wish you would let your hair grow out. You can be a super cool preacher without the 1960's/70's papaw haircut. But I love you all very much!

My goal is certainly not to be a “super cool” preacher, but instead to be a faithful one. -g

Come on Granger…give us some Christian music!!!

I hope you get your wife pregnant again so river can reincarnate back into the family so then we’ll have river back❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

That's not possible. Reincarnation is not real, nor is it Biblical. While you may not mean to, it's dishonoring the life that River lived to wish for such a thing. The three years he had here were sufficient for him to leave his lasting legacy on earth, and now he can rejoice in the reward of His Heavenly Father.

after River was born Amber had her tubes tied and they did IVF to get Maverick who is all there kids little brother.
