Y'all this episode was so fun for me! I got to sit down a a friend that i have known since FOURTH GRADE. Anna Sailors Pinkham is a long time friend and worship leader at elevation church. In the recent turn to a new decade, anna and I sat down to reflect on a moment that the Lord changed her direction and essentially the whole story she had planned for herself. Anna is the wife to Josh Pinkham, worship leader at elevation church, and a montgomery, AL native. This theatre geek got her life turned upside down when the Lord called her to worship ministry… in the best way. This was so fun for us to connect, catch up, and talk about the path the Lord has taken anna down. Its beautiful and I am so glad y'all are here to listen in!
