Description

John Cooper, sits down with Paula to talk about his challenging path in pursuing his calling despite the lack of support from loved ones, the importance of staying true to who you are, and the commitment to sacrifice that is required along the way. He opens up about his relationship with his mother, how she helped shape his faith, why she didn’t want him to pursue his musical calling, and for the first time, shares what she said on her deathbed that he’s had to reconcile. The lead singer, bassist, and co-founder of Skillet, also talks about the crossroads he has faced in the pursuit of success and how his commitment to what made the band stand out, helped them to become one of the best selling rock bands of the 21st Century.
