Interview Quotes:
“I had so many questions of God; why? Why would You let this happen to me?” - Stephanie Quayle
“I went into the water one way and I came out different. It was immediate. I'd already been forgiven by God; I didn't get that forgiveness of myself until that moment.” - Stephanie Quayle
“What I love about country music is its storytelling and it’s a very simple version when it comes to complex conversations. I think that sometimes in the way I structure my songs, I can take something that's very heavy and give it a little bit more softness around the edges.” - Stephanie Quayle
“Forgiveness, that is such a powerful word. Because you only get forgiveness through faith.” - Stephanie Quayle
“We need each other to be different, but we have to figure out how to love and support each other in our differences.” - Anna Broadway
“When you do study the Bible for yourself, I think that's the first and most important place to see, Wow, singleness is not necessarily what I make of it.” - Anna Broadway
“When we reshape our narrative for life from one that's about finding a relationship or not, and having children or not, to one that's about following Jesus and seeking first God's kingdom, it really changes how we think about singleness.” - Anna Broadway
“God can show up where you think it's almost impossible. There is no limit to how and where God can meet us.” - Anna Broadway
