Dove Award-winning singer Colton Dixon says his three-year-old twin daughters have helped deepen his faith and have helped him understand the love of God in a way he previously did not understand. His wife, Annie, gave birth to Ava Dior and Athens Elizabeth in 2020, and the girls turned three last August. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe’re heirs to the throne, and He loves us unconditionally. I love my kids unconditionally,\u201d Dixon told ChristianHeadlines.com. \u201cJust having kids has ignited that part of my relationship with the Lord that I didn’t have before. And it’s just been so cool to even view myself in that way, and even cut myself some slack. As I view my kids — God views me that way. \u2026 There’s no shame, there’s no condemnation. We still need to run to Him. And it’s not a free pass. But there’s so much freedom in that.\u201d<\/p>\n
The American Idol alum and Build a Boat<\/em> singer has been busy the past year, not only in his music career but also on the set of a new television show, Great American Family\/Great American Pure Flix\u2019s County Rescue<\/em>, in which he makes a guest appearance. The show follows a group of EMTs who are in training and competing for a slot. He previously appeared in another series, Live + Local<\/em>, on Great American Family Pure Flix. \u00a0\u201cWho knows — maybe this opens a whole new world for me,\u201d he said while laughing in reference to his acting gigs.<\/p>\n His daughters, he said, have an innate ability to absorb knowledge effortlessly. \u201cSo whatever you’re putting in front of them, they’re going to know it,\u201d he said. That innate ability among children, he said, places a unique responsibility on parents.<\/p>\n \u201cLet’s be intentional about what we’re putting in so [that] it’s not all princesses — although we love that, too,\u201d he said. \u201cThey can quote Scripture. My wife will be like, \u2018I can’t do,\u2019 and they’ll just do, \u2018all things through Christ who gives me strength.\u2019 That is just the most mind-blowing thing to me. And it’s my favorite thing.\u201d His daughters, he added, make him want to be a better person and father. \u00a0\u201cThey make me want to be the best version of me that I can be,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
