Episode 118: How to Help Your Kids Find Purpose with Tom and Katie Douglas

Powered by RedCircle

You know what it’s like to sit in conversation with folks who are full of wisdom, substance, honesty and humility? The kinds of folks you could ask questions to and learn from for hours on end? Those would be our dear friends Tom & Katie Douglas. Katie was a significant part of Daystar becoming what it is today, and she is still serving on our Board of Directors. She is full of passion and purpose, wisdom and generosity. 

When the school shooting happened in our city, and Katie learned that we’d be serving many of the children who were in the building that day, she immediately appeared at the Daystar house and for days on end she would bake cookies. When things are as hard as they get, everything is better with a hot chocolate chip cookie. The entire Daystar house smelled of warm cookies and there was something healing and hopeful in how she served all of us. That’s a small snapshot of this dynamic woman.

Tom is one of Nashville’s most beloved, revered and celebrated songwriters. He is behind many of the songs you’ve loved and known like The House the Built Me (Miranda Lamber), I Run to You (Lady A), and Grown Men Don’t Cry (Tim McGraw), to name a just a few. He is a Grammy winning, Oscar nominated, Billboard chart topping songwriter, who also released a critically acclaimed documentary- Love, Tom. He is wise and thoughtful, intuitive and intentional. We are thrilled to share this conversation with our friends, Tom & Katie.
