Summary

When Anne Wilson was growing up, she wanted to be an astronaut. She made plans, started taking classes, and set her hopes on traveling to space. But one tragic summer night in 2017 altered the course of Anne's life. The death of her brother Jacob, set off a series of events that made clear to Anne that God's purpose was different than her plan. Anne sang in front of an audience for the very first time at her brother's funeral. That was also the moment God clearly called Anne to spend her life praising and worshipping Him. Her first song, "My Jesus," debuted at #1 on the iTunes Christian & Gospel music chart.
