In Episode 115 of Halfway to Sunday, Jill sits down with Christian artist Carly Ann Taylor to hear the story behind her faith, her calling, and her song “Why Should I Worry.” Carly shares about growing up in a deeply unstable environment of abuse, addiction, and foster care to then reaching a breaking point where she contemplated ending her life. She describes hearing a simple phrase “Something good is coming” and later realizing it was God preparing her heart for the gospel. Carly also opens up about a post-college season of depression and paralyzing fear of the future, and how Scripture (Matthew 6) and worship became a lifeline. The conversation highlights surrender, God’s behind-the-scenes work, and how a “sacrifice of praise” can become a song that carries others.
