Chart-topping country artist Jelly Roll took the opportunity of his GRAMMY wins to proclaim Jesus to the packed Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, and on the CBS television network.

The Nashville, Tennessee-born artist swept 3 different categories at the GRAMMYS, including Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song category for “Hard Fought Hallelujah” with Christian artist Brandon Lake.

“First of all, Jesus, I hear you, and I'm listening. Lord, I am listening. Lord. Second of all, I want to thank my beautiful wife [Bunnie Xo]. I would have never changed my life without you. I would have ended up dead or in jail,”

Specifically of his album, Beautifully Broken, the GRAMMY winner said, “There was a time in my life, y'all, that I was broken. That's why I wrote this album. I didn't think I had a chance, y'all. …There was a moment in my life that all I had was a Bible this big, and a radio the same size, and a six-by-eight-foot cell.

“And I believe that those two things could change my life. I believe that music had the power to change my life, and God had the power to change my life. And I want to tell y'all right now Jesus is for everybody. Jesus is not owned by one political party. Jesus is not owned by no music label. Jesus is Jesus, and anybody can have a relationship with Him. I love you, Lord.”
