As everyone in the world can see, I am not a rocker.
I believe in helping people who are down.
I can just be a Christian who sings mainstream music instead of having to be a Christian who has to somehow just sing Christian music.
I don't live in regret land. I live in the now and in the future, and in the dreams that I have.
I drove an 18-wheeler semi-truck, a big rig. I liked it actually.
I had underwear thrown on stage that said 'Gokey' on the back... All glittery! It was grandma-underwear, too.
I have a mission, and that's to help people. That's what I want my music to do.
I needed to walk through the 'Idol' door to get to the rest of my career.
I tell people life is like a book being written by heavenly hands that we can't see.
I tried out for American Idol, I got a record deal, and now it's like my best days are ahead of me.
I want to have a movement with my music.
I would like to do a duet with Kelly Clarkson. I just think she's wonderful!
I've always loved glasses. Always have. I've worn glasses since I was in the fifth grade.
One of the things that I learned at a very young age is the power of a parent's words to their children.
One thing I didn't want to believe in is that I couldn't have a family and do music at the same time.
When you write about hope, don't make it sappy; make it cool, make it adaptable.
Your future is only big enough for you to walk through, not for you and your past to walk through.
When I was 12 years old, my dad got into country music. My first CD was Wynonna Judd, and I loved it.
Trusting in God is important. He knows what is best.
