How do you find your thing when everyone is expecting something else from you?
If you've felt boxed in by comparisons to other artists, cookie-cutter industry expectations, or the spiritual sandtrap of inauthentic ministry, you need to hear this story of an artist who dared to break free and find her own voice.
Songwriter, worship leader and recording artist Keisha McFarland's journey from Chicago, to Europe and Asia, and finally to South Florida was filled with twists and turns. As she faced rejection and embraced resilience, little did she know that her true calling was just around the corner.

- Embrace authenticity in both creative pursuits and ministry.
- Grow your confidence by overcoming hurdles and embracing unprecedented paths in ministry work.
- See God's hand even in rejection, correction and disappointment on your way to your divine, designated place of creative blessing.
