Trusting God's Plan When Faith Becomes the Only Way Forward with Jason Hewlett

All Episodes

November 5, 2025

In this episode of Why We Believe with host Nathan Gwilliam , professional entertainer Jason Hewlett shares how a bus full of strangers in Florianopolis , Brazil became his first audience for opening his mouth boldly. After the Spirit prompted him to sing "How Great Thou Art" in English on public transportation, that courage defined his mission and eventual career performing G-rated shows for corporate audiences worldwide including PGA pros and military troops. Jason reveals how defending the Book of Mormon at age 15 against a teacher's attacks built testimony foundations, why a BYU director disqualified his standing-ovation Michael Jackson performance, and how a misunderstood church camp lesson taught him about bearing crosses like Christ. His story demonstrates that early promises to God create guardrails preventing compromise when worldly opportunities demand we choose sides.
