Summary

I’m so excited to have my friend Jana Kramer here! And y’all. I’m so proud of the way she shares her story with such honesty and vulnerability in this conversation and in her latest book, The Next Chapter. Today we’re talking about what her life has looked like post-divorce, her journey with motherhood, the questions she’s asking God, and what she’s learning about freedom and redemption. Because we’re talking about some tender parts of her story, it’s probably best for you to listen to this before any of my miniBFFs do. Jana so graciously opened up about what she’s walking through when it comes to church, faith, and some of the tough parts of it. I think you’re really going to love the honesty in this episode, and I feel really honored that Jana would invite us into her story this way. . . . . Subscribe to Let's Read the Gospels with Annie F.

You may know Janna from back in the day when she was on One Tree Hill or maybe you know her incredible country music or maybe you've just picked up any of her books. But either way, I'm so to have Dana here. I'm really proud of the way she shared parts of her story with such honesty and vulnerability, particularly in her latest book in the next chapter.
