Colton Dixon is sharing a fresh look into his current season of life and faith in CCM Magazine's newly released February cover story, offering an honest conversation about family, calling, and the inspiration behind his recent single, "The Love I Have For You."
In the interview, Dixon reflects on how becoming a father reshaped the way he understands God's love. Recalling a moment in the hospital when he first met his twin daughters, he described feeling an overwhelming willingness to do anything for them-followed by what he called a gentle spiritual reminder that God's love is even deeper and more personal. Dixon said the realization left him emotional, marking a turning point in how he views his relationship with the Lord.
That perspective also connects directly to "The Love I Have For You," a track that has been steadily climbing radio charts in recent weeks. Dixon explained that Romans 8 has played a major role in his spiritual grounding lately, particularly the passage describing believers as "more than conquerors" through God's love. He shared that meditating on that truth challenged him to stop striving from a place of insecurity and instead live from a place of victory and assurance-an idea that ultimately shaped the message of the song.
The conversation also touches on Dixon's longtime ties to Middle Tennessee, his early love for sports before music took hold, and the work ethic his family encouraged as he pursued singing and songwriting. Dixon noted that touring and career momentum have been significant, but maintaining faith and family priorities remains essential as he continues to steward his platform.
For Dixon, the goal of "The Love I Have For You" is simple: to remind listeners-especially in stressful or uncertain seasons-that God's love is not distant, but active, personal, and steady.
