Thomas Rhett was playing the final show of his “Home Team Tour ’23” in Nashville Saturday night when real life intruded.
Rhett was mid-show when it became apparent that a fan close to the stage had suffered some sort of medical crisis – enough so that they were carried out by medical personnel. Instead of continuing the show and glossing over the moment, Thomas Rhett the superstar morphed back into Thomas Rhett, the empathetic human being.
Coming to the side of the stage where the fallen fan’s family and friends were, Rhett stopped the show to lead the entire Bridgestone Arena crowd in a prayer for the stricken fan. “God, we just ask for your healing over Terry. We know you are the ultimate physician. We know that you are the ultimate healer,” he prayed as the crowd fell silent.
“Pray for Terry’s family right now, who [are] very scared. For Terry, who is very scared,” he continued. “God, we know that you are a miracle worker and we pray over Terry and his family right now. We ask that everybody in this room, after they leave tonight, they will continue to pray for Terry and his family. We love you. We thank you for this in Jesus’ name. Amen.”
As TR concluded his prayer, the crowd roared “Amen” back to him. See the powerful moment below.
