Film composer Tyler Michael Smith, son of Christian music legend Michael W. Smith, joins GodTube Music's Brandon Woolum on the red carpet at the world premiere of Daniel and the Fiery Furnace!

Tyler shares why composing the score for a Scripture-based film carried more weight than any project he's worked on before, how music helps bring biblical stories to life, and why the story of Daniel remains so relevant today.

He also opens up about the meaning of “faith under fire” and his hope that the film inspires audiences to stand firm in their faith.

Daniel and the Fiery Furnace opens in theaters September 18, 2026.
