I Never Wanted This to Be My Story, But I Would Do It All Again! | Sadie Rob Huff & Annie F. Downs
Sadie Robertson
Annie F. Downs would be the first one to tell you she never wanted a ministry to singles — as a single woman — to be her story. But now, doing work that means something to so many, and following God's leading, Annie says she wouldn't change a thing if she was given the chance to do it over again. Annie tells Sadie she's had to learn how to give from a place of lack and why that's transformed how she approaches everything. Her latest initiative is a new Advent series, "Stay Tuned" — for anyone who has already been in a waiting season and now we're entering Advent - a season of expectant hope and waiting. Sadie asks Annie how she'd encourage other singles at this time of year (and in general), and Annie's advice for married people when it comes to their single friends.
