When asked how to become successful, Tauren Wells doesn’t give an answer that you might expect. He knows the Christian music industry. He was part of a band called Royal Tailor, now has his own solo project that you can hear on WAY NEW.
He spoke to a group of teens at Camp Electric about how to become famous and why following your dreams isn’t the answer.
Tauren said, “People ask me that dumb question: “How do I become famous?” … I’m giving you the direct route right now. Follow presence. Because God’s presence will take you places that you’ve never been before… I wasn’t chasing a dream, I was following Jesus. I wasn’t just trying to get on stage, I was trying to serve people. I wasn’t just trying to be well-liked and well-loved, I was trying to do what I did well and pleasing to God… That’s how I got to the Grammy red carpet. I wasn’t following a dream, I was following Jesus.”
