Trent Walker

Trent and Siobhán are a husband and wife singer-songwriter duo raising their 5 sons on the road full time in a nearly vintage Foretravel motorhome. Their original songs speak of adventure, bravery, reaching out to others and trusting in a God who never fails. Their family motto has become to "live simply, so that others may simply live." Come watch as they cross the nation in search of the joys of life and sharing them with others. If you are interested in having us come and share our song and journey with your church or even a group of friends at your home, please give us a shout. We would love to come and be a blessing wherever we can.

Show Notes:

  • 6:18 - Why call the channel EVERYDAY Family Adventures?
  • 7:02 - "Life is pretty awesome. So let's start with that basis and know that I don't want my life to be boring. And that's a choice. And so that's an everyday choice. And so we're going to choose quite effectively to make every day an adventure in some way."
  • 7:47 - "I'm going to choose to have hope and look at tomorrow with opportunity. And I think that we as dads have to go before our kids in that in that optimism, especially today when the world is in a hopeless place."
  • 9:03 - Song: Speak: https://youtu.be/PeT8LQOffDs
  • 14:18 - "I mean, that was kind of the faith and the words that needed to come out of our mouth and begin coming out of our mouth during that time when we were really struggling and we were praying every morning, getting on our knees was just this like, I am not going to leave this place until I get the favor of the Lord because I am done with being passive. I'm done with being like, woe is me. I'm going to I'm going to choose to believe in in this God that I've spoken about all my life, but really never took action steps in it."
  • 14:42 - Missions as a family: "Live simply so that others may simply live." AND "To inspire people to find their own adventure in life, something that will bring them joy while bringing others joy as well."
  • 23:34 - "I believe, the more you worship God, the more you get the heart of Christ and the heart of Christ to be around people and love people. And so I believe the more you look at Jesus, the more you fix your eyes on Jesus and the more you're singing about him and glorifying him and maybe getting your eyes off of yourself. Jesus keeps doing this wild thing. You look at him more and he keeps showing you where his heart is and his heart is the love the world."
  • 27:14 - Wanting the heart to grow bigger.
