Scars, Sins, and Singing with Purpose - American Idol Winner: Trent Harmon

Michael interviews American Idol winner Trent Harmon, who’s traded country stardom for something deeper: a life of faith, family, and worship. From late nights on tour with Rascal Flatts to leading worship at small churches, Trent shares what led him back to his roots—and how his new Christian EP, Scars and Sins, reflects that journey.

🔥 Key Takeaways

• Faith Over Fame: Despite winning American Idol and earning radio spins, Trent found himself spiritually drained in the mainstream music world. Now, he’s prioritizing music that glorifies God—and that his daughter can grow up listening to.

• Church Roots Run Deep: Trent grew up in Mississippi, led worship through college, and even sought out a church while sequestered during Idol. Worship has always been part of his DNA.

• From Country to Christian: Scars and Sins is not a country album—it’s a worship EP. Honest, heartfelt, and grounded in scripture, this is the music Trent says he was always meant to create.
