Audrey Assad is an award winning songwriter and musician. She has been named on Amazon’s Best Christian Music list and iTunes Christian Breakthrough Album. And if you’ve ever heard her sing, then you will know why she has received the accolades she has. As the daughter of a Syrian refugee, she was raised in a bi-racial home and takes us through her journey from an oppressive fundamentalist church through starting her own label, Fortunate Fall Records.
