(Jeremychanphotography\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n Frank admitted that the issue is something he’s been “struggling with” and said he struggled with it last year when he won an award for best new artist<\/a> at the Dove Awards.<\/p>\n “I said, \u2018I\u2019m still struggling with the concept of receiving this award, but all glory to Jesus, every name will fade away, including mine, except for one name.'”<\/p>\n Now, he explained, “I feel a conviction to go even a step further and say I don’t know if I even want to step on the stage. I don’t know if I want to step in the room. And so I have decided to take a stance of non-participation.”<\/p>\n He shared that he wouldn’t be attending the Dove Awards or the Grammy Awards<\/a> and added, “I hope to be an example to the youth that the trophy is our salvation. The trophy is that my name is listed in the book of life and I get to have eternal life. What good is a piece of metal going to do compared to that?”<\/p>\n CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER<\/a><\/p>\n This year’s Dove Awards were held Oct. 7, and Jelly Roll made a passionate speech after receiving the song of the year award for “Hard Fought Hallelujah,” a song he recorded with Brandon Lake.<\/p>\n Brandon Lake and Jelly Roll perform at the T-Mobile Mane Stage during the 2025 Stagecoach Festival April 26, 2025, in Indio, Calif.\u00a0 (Frazer Harrison\/Getty Images for Stagecoach)<\/p>\n “The world is hearing about Jesus like they haven’t in decades right now,” he said in part. “There is a revival happening in the United States of America where you can’t go on a corner and not hear about Jesus right now. And while we are hearing about Jesus, I encourage you to put faith on your feet and feet on your faith and walk out of this building and go do for the least.”<\/p>\n The Dove Awards shared the video<\/a> of Jelly Roll’s speech on Instagram, and Frank left a comment Friday that read, “Congrats bro!! Keep going for Jesus.”<\/p>\n![\"Jelly](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/jelly-roll-forrest-frank.jpg\")
