I am SO excited that today we get to chat with the one & only Anne Wilson!

How incredible is this! Anne  is the FIRST female solo artist to hit No. 1 with a debut song on the National Christian Airplay chart since the chart’s inception in 2003 with her single, “My Jesus.”

Hey! Welcome back to another episode of Faith & Friends! Today we are chatting with the founder of HOSANNA REVIVAL, Katie Guiliano!

"If Christians  love this book so much, then why are they all so ugly?" -Katie

ABOUT HOSANA REVIVAL: In 2015 while studying in Spain, our founder Katie had the idea to re-bind and paint her bilingual Bible. It was plain black — she wanted her Bible to be beautiful and personal, reflecting the way the words on the inside made her feel. Katie immediately saw the ministry that this could become. She spent the next few weeks trying out different materials and processes- creating what is now Hosanna Revival.

In this episode you will hear about:
-how Katie came to Christ as the FIRST Christian in her family 
-how Hosanna Revival began as Katie was in college 
-how to humbly walk in Gods calling for your life
-how to apply and soak in Gods word even in a dry season
-word for word vs. thought for thought translations 


I pray this episode pointed you to Gods word and sparked your heart to dive into Scripture more and more! You are so loved.
