"Part of the DNA of for KING & COUNTRY is this idea of respect and honor in relationships and women being priceless," Joel says. "What we've both found in our beliefs as men is that people are made equal. No one is a commodity and everyone deserves to be loved and loved well." To Joel and Luke, remaining focused on what truly matters is crucial to succeeding musically. "The best legacy I can leave is if I am a good dad and good husband. If my family environment was out of whack, I don't know if I'd even be able to write songs anymore," says Luke.

Local radio station, Joy FM (Sarasota, FL), reported that the coach is "teaching these girls the importance of a relationship with God and to dig deeper and thrive as young women of God." To date, more than 80 thousand "Priceless" necklaces and "Respect & Honor" bracelets combined have been sold.
