American Idol alum and Christian singer Colton Dixon met Tim Tebow for the first time this past weekend. The meeting was a huge moment for Colton, who said he was inspired by the former Florida Gators and NFL quarterback's faith in the spotlight, and tried to model that while competing on American Idol.

Writing on Facebook, Dixon exclaims: "Really cool to finally meet Tim Tebow. Big inspiration for me while I was on idol. Thanks for who you are and who you stand for brother."

Furthermore, Dixon's new video "Through It All" has already reached nearly two million people on social media, and the single has climbed to the No. 1 spot at Hot AC radio, making it Dixon's fourth consecutive No. 1 single on the chart. The track is also quickly climbing both the AC Indicator and AC Monitored charts, currently at No. 10 and No. 14 respectively.

Directed by Eric Welch (Carrie Underwood, Mandisa, TobyMac), "Through All Of It" points to God's faithfulness through all of life's trials, and the music video features several individuals sharing their personal stories of how God has brought them through their struggles.
