Before taking the stage, Carson Daly spoke about the special bond that Josh Sanders has with his The Voice coach.
“Everything in life is either opportunity or opposition,” he told Reba. “It’s up to us.”
Speaking about McEntire’s impact on him, Josh Sanders stated, “You’re so open and speak to me not about our roots and country music, but especially about the Lord and our faith.”
Sanders then said he couldn’t think of anyone else he would rather sing with than the “Queen of Country.”
While discussing the song choice, Reba stated, “I love your style and I love the way you sing. I love your heart and I can’t wait [to perform this song].”
Fans praised the emotional performance. “Josh Sanders sings ‘Back To God’ with Reba McEntire,” one fan wrote. “Love to see/hear these expressions of Faith on so many shows lately. Music heals. We need more healing messages in today’s world. They sounded great together.”
