Overview
Sandra McCracken, singer-songwriter and hymn writer from Nashville, Tennessee, joins the podcast today. She is a prolific recording artist and has produced 14 solo albums over two decades. Her best-selling release, Psalms (2015) received critical acclaim, followed by God’s Highway (2017) which made the top 50 on Billboard Heatseekers chart without a major label.
Blending the old and new, Sandra has also shown a unique ability to recast sacred scripture texts into theologically rich yet accessible songs. Her thoughtful lyrics and gospel melodies in songs like “We Will Feast In The House Of Zion,” “Steadfast" and “Thy Mercy My God” have become staple anthems in churches across the U.S. As a published writer, she contributes a regular column in "Christianity Today" and is working on her first book that will come out later this year.
In today’s episode, we talk about her new album "Patient Kingdom," how we keep worshipping in difficult times, her spiritual journey and, of course, her new book. Sandra will be speaking in chapel at Asbury Seminary on March 9 at 11 a.m. ET in Estes Chapel. We invite you to join in-person with COVID-19 policies in place, or online at Asbury.to/live or on the Asbury Seminary Chapel Facebook page.
Now, let’s listen to my conversation with Sandra!
