Audrey Assad is an award-winning Catholic singer/songwriter. Her latest album, Inheritance (Deluxe Edition)
, is a collection of classic hymns sung in a new-feeling way. She's also one of my all-time favorite artists; her song Good To Me was sung during my wedding and I play her newest album while I'm praying every morning. Getting to speak with her was an absolute honor, and I hope you enjoy our convo!

Getting to speak with her was an absolute honor, and I hope you enjoy our convo!Topics discussed:
- How a group of guys in a coffee shop helped Audrey become Catholic
- How she became one of the best-known Christian music artists
- Why she recently switched from songwriting to re-designing classic hymns for her latest album, Inheritance
- Why her songs tend to be a bit darker and more emotional than what's typically heard on good ole KLOVE
- How her specific temperament and attempts to "live small" are difficult with her on-the-road lifestyle
- Why the plight of Syrian refugees is near-and-dear to her heart and why she thinks so many Christians reject their Arab histories
