My guest for this week’s podcast is Jennifer Knapp.

Jennifer is a singer, author and activist who recently released her latest album Love Comes Back Around, her sixth album in a music career with two distinct sections. After releasing three contemporary Christian albums in the late ’90s and early 2000s, which garnered her two Dove Awards and a Grammy nomination, she took a break from music and moved to Australia before resuming her career in 2009. The following year, she came out as gay and released Letting Go, her first mainstream album. Set Me Free followed in 2014, in conjunction with a memoir, Facing the Music: My Story.

In this episode, we talk about her career in contemporary Christian music, vulnerability, and her own fond relationship with failure.
