This three-hour event promises to be a celebration of faith, hope, and powerful performances. Viewers can expect heartfelt spiritual songs from the show’s celebrity judges – Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie – along with special appearances by guest artists Jelly Roll, Brandon Lake, CeCe Winans, Roman Collins, and The Brown Four.

Jelly Roll Shares His Faith Through Music

Fans are especially excited to see Jelly Roll return to the Idol stage. The country-rap sensation is expected to perform his inspiring duet “Hard Fought Hallelujah” with Brandon Lake, a song that highlights resilience and spiritual growth.

Jelly Roll, known for his raw and honest lyrics, has always embraced faith in his music. In a recent interview with K-LOVE, he shared how important it is to create open conversations about belief.

“I think it’s our jobs in faith to push that envelope,” Jelly Roll said. “Millions of people like me are finding a safe place right now in God. I get messages saying, ‘I’m a fence-riding Christian too, and you make me feel safe talking about God again.””

This season, Jelly Roll is also serving as American Idol’s Artist-in-Residence, making his performance even more meaningful for the Easter episode.

Another highlight of the Easter special will be Carrie Underwood, who returned to her Idol roots this season – not as a contestant, but as a judge! Underwood, who won Season 4 of American Idol back in 2005, is now using her experience to mentor a new generation of artists.

In an interview on Audacy’s Superstar Power Hour, Underwood admitted that stepping into the judge’s chair was both exciting and a little nerve-wracking.

“Sitting on the other side of the table, more than anything, I want to help these people live their dreams. But you wonder, ‘Am I coming across mean?””

Underwood shared. “There’s so much talent — it’s kind of insane how gifted some of these people are.”

Don’t Miss the Easter ‘Songs of Faith’ Episode

In addition to performances from the judges and guest artists, the remaining Top 20 contestants will also deliver soul-stirring spiritual songs, making it an unforgettable night for music lovers.

Whether you’re a longtime American Idol fan or tuning in for the inspiring Easter vibes, this special episode promises to be one of the most heartwarming of the season.
