When the pandemic began last year, there was no way to predict how profoundly it would affect all of us. This episode touches on some of the most difficult moments of a quarantined reality as Sandra talks to her dear friend Andi Ashworth. Andi and her husband, producer Charlie Peacock, officially established Art House in Nashville in 1991. Art House was not only a recording studio for Charlie, but it served as a place for artists to find rest while recording. Andi's role was to care for those who came through the Art House doors, as well as her own family who lived on the property. Since leaving Art House in 2015, Andi's role as caregiver has changed a bit, and her resolve has been tested this past year as she desperately misses her children and grandchildren. Andi's book Real Love for Real Life is a beautiful example of developing patience as we give care for those we love.

Season two of Steadfast will center on patience and endurance, themes Sandra painstakingly experienced and highlighted in her newest record Patient Kingdom.Jay and Catherine Wolf's calling is to encourage families through difficult seasons of suffering. This work began in 2007 when Catherine survived a catastrophic stroke a few months after giving birth to her first child. Miraculously, she survived. After a 16-hour brain surgery, 40 days in the ICU, a year in neuro rehab, and 11 operations, she continues her recovery to this day.This experience started the family on a lifelong journey to be advocates for others affected by disabilities. In 2016, the Wolfs started dreaming up Hope Heals camp, which offers resources, rest, and relationships for families affected by disabilities. Before the pandemic, Sandra joined them at this camp and saw firsthand how patience is the essential thread tying together their lives and work. Jay and Catherine released their book Suffer Strong in February of 2020. Steadfast is a production of Sandra McCracken in partnership with Christianity Today.
