This week, we’ll hear from Tauren Wells, acclaimed recording artist and lead pastor of Church of Whitestone in Austin, Texas. Raised in Battle Creek, Michigan, Tauren’s early life was steeped in music and shaped by his experiences at a small church and the guidance of a caring youth pastor. In this conversation, Tauren reflects on the things that can steal our focus, the quiet dangers of success, and what it means to live a truly joyful life. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Out of Eden, the ground-breaking sister trio who burst onto the scene in the nineties and helped redefine contemporary Christian music. From their early beginnings singing harmonies and choreographing dances in their living room to performing on big stages in nationwide tours, they navigated the pitfalls of growing up in the spotlight with grace beyond their years. Now, thirty years later, they’re reuniting their voices to offer hope to a new generation.

And I think that’s when our heart can be thrown upside down and all we ever feel is anxiety, fear, doubt, and despair, because we flip the beauty of the reality that we get to do life with God.” - Tauren Wells “There is a relentless joy that flows from being intentionally aware of [God’s] presence.” - Tauren Wells “Jesus preached the most important message on joy, and it was the first thing that He decided to talk about. How important to the heart of God must our happiness be just based on the priority of the message?” - Tauren Wells “Happiness and joy have nothing to do with what’s happening around you; it has everything to do with what is happening inside of you. Restoring that sense of gratitude for the ultimate price that was paid to unlock our freedom is so central to all of our lives as believers.” - Tauren Wells “We found a scripture in Genesis 2:10 that says, ‘A river flows out of Eden to water the garden.’ Once we read that, we knew that was our mission. We grew up in the church, we’ve always been plugged into the Word of God, and we really wanted to use that to minister to those who would be listening to our music.” - Andrea Kimmey-Baca of Out of Eden “I really do believe that because of our grounding in the Word of God and having a community of believers surrounding us, that we were able to ride the harder waves and talk out the things that were more confusing to us.” - Danielle Kimmey of Out of Eden “We just wanted to honor the fans who kept our name and our legacy and our music alive.” - Danielle Kimmey of Out of Eden “We were in an industry that wasn’t really built for our style of music. I think that presented a lot of challenges for us, and gave us the opportunity to not only overcome those challenges, but also have the right heart posture.” - Lisa Kimmey of Out of Eden “For anyone who is going through these current times—we need hope, we need joy.” - Out of Eden ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

We've mistaken platforms for purpose. We've idolized influence and sacrificed intimacy. And we've called it success when in reality, it's just burnout in disguise. This week, Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Tauren Wells joins Win Today for a brutally honest conversation about the danger of exposure growing faster than character. Together, we explore how influence without intimacy leads to insecurity, how image management becomes spiritual performance, and why pathologizing our struggles has kept us from doing the real work of healing.

There's a lot of trends we needed to talk about today. Not only is it Jayar's birthday and the officlal launch day of Tauren Wells new book, it's the launch of a trendy summer hat from Carmen. Before we got to that though, Bill realized that he has some quirky rules set up for himself when it comes to reading. Carmen is often seen as a trendsetter. She's also known for a particular phrase she uses almost daily. So we took that phrase and put it on a trendy new hat and made it...
Today we're answering the question, “How do I find joy in this season?” with Tauren Wells. You know him from his music—you've heard his voice, you've sung along in the car—but today we're talking about some really exciting new chapters in his life. He's releasing his first book called Joy Bomb and we talk about what joy really means, and how to carry it in hard seasons. Also, Tauren's pastoring a new church in North Austin called Church of Whitestone and we're talking about what this move and new step has looked like for him and his family.

What if the things you don't have are exactly what God wants to use? In this powerful conversation, Tauren Wells joins The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast to share the story behind his new book Joy Bomb: Unleashing Jesus's Explosive Joy for an Extraordinary Life. Together with host Ginny Yurich, Tauren unpacks the deeper meaning of the Beatitudes—revealing how Jesus' first sermon wasn't just a list of virtues but a radical invitation to joy for the overlooked, the grieving, the struggling, and the spiritually empty. They explore how our culture's obsession with curated happiness leaves us chasing a version of joy that never satisfies. Instead, Tauren offers a bold reframing: lack, mourning, and hardship aren't roadblocks—they're invitations into a deeper, more explosive joy. With stories from his own life, parenting insights, and biblical truth, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about what it means to live a blessed life. ** Get your copy of Joy Bomb here Learn more about Tauren and all he has to offer here Learn more about your ad choices.

Singer, songwriter, pastor, and author Tauren Wells joins Blake to explore what true, lasting happiness looks like through a biblical lens. They unpack the idea that spiritual happiness is the anchor that gives meaning to every other kind of joy—whether vocational, relational, or even found in everyday moments like cleaning the house. The conversation centers around the foundational truth that spiritual happiness is the anchor that allows joy in all other areas to not only exist but to last. Together, they challenge the belief that God only cares about our sanctification, reminding listeners that He's also invested in our flourishing and delight. This conversation is a rich reminder that joy doesn't have to be loud to be real—and that God is at work even in the simplest of things. In this episode, you'll be able to… Understand the difference between fleeting happiness and lasting spiritual joy. Learn how to find contentment in the quiet, ordinary moments of life. Be encouraged that God cares about both your sanctification and your flourishing. Tauren is the author of Joy Bomb – available everywhere May 20!

Among many accolades, he has impressively garnered 10 GRAMMY Award nominations and eight GMA Dove Awards in addition to nods at the Billboard Music Awards, BET Awards, NAACP Image Awards, and more.Gathering 1 billion-plus worldwide streams and nearly half-a-billion views, he has notched seven #1 hits at radio and three consecutive Top 5 debuts on the Billboard Top Christian Albums Chart. His catalog has expanded with two RIAA platinum-certified singles—“Known” and “Hills and Valleys”—and two gold-certified singles, namely “God's Not Done With You” and “Famous For (I Believe).” He has distinguished himself as the rare artist who can collaborate with Academy® Award winner H.E.R. or arena-filling hard rock juggernaut Skillet and Davies. Beyond successful headline tours, he notably joined Lionel Richie and Mariah Carey for a blockbuster run. Not to mention, he has delivered show stopping television performances on Good Morning America.Before the world ever hears a note, reads a word, or witnesses a performance, Tauren always shares his artistry with his wife and children. He doesn't write, sing, or perform in pursuit of success; it's much purer than that. He creates in order to draw his family closer to their collective faith, imparting lasting strength upon them. The same intent underscores his 2025 album, his upcoming literary debut, and the Austin, TX house of worship he co-founded with his wife—Church of Whitestone.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
