The song “One Day At A Time” was written in collaboration with award-winning producer P.J. Morton and member of the band Maroon 5. Morton also produced the song which is about the promise of marriage. 

“I’ve been married 11 years and we do it one day at a time,” says Wilson. “We make the decision every day to be faithful to each other, to forgive one another, to keep showing up, to work as hard as we can and to keep believing that God is going to work out whatever problems we may have. It’s important to tie marriage to worship because a good marriage is a model for the way God wants to be in relationship with us,” he added.

You can catch Brian Courtney Wilson on the road through the remainder of this month. He is currently on promotional tour in Washington, DC (Wednesday, February 15); followed by Baltimore, MD (Thursday, February 16); Philadelphia, PA (Friday, February 17); Nashville (Sunday, February 19 through Tuesday, February 21); and Atlanta, GA (Wednesday, February 22).
