Says Travis, "I am overwhelmed by the faithfulness of God and the support of so many people.

Big shouts to my family, RCA Inspiration, Greenelight Music, Forward City Church, all radio stations, and everyone who chooses to embrace my heart through music. We're just getting started! #engageculture."
