I loved getting to sit down with Leanna Crawford (lattes in hand, of course).

Leanna grew up homeschooled in a small farm town in Washington, found Jesus at a young age, and felt God put a calling on her life to do music. The doors opened. She moved to Nashville. Life was good.

And then it got really hard.

She shares honestly about the season when anxiety kept her up at night, when she couldn't sit at the piano without crying, and when she felt like she had let everyone down. We talk about how God used her sister Lindsey, a counselor at Porter's Call, and the people around her to keep pointing her back to Jesus. That's how she found her love for music again.

Not "I have to do this."

"I get to."

We also talk about God's timing being so much better than our plans, the unexpected gift of marriage, the long wait to get pregnant... and Leanna shares some really sweet baby news right here on the show. 🤍

If you're in the valley right now, I pray her words at the end of this episode land right where you need them. God doesn't waste your pain.

Scripture we touched on:
Romans 8:28
Proverbs 13:12
Jeremiah 29:11
Ephesians 1:4
