Meredith is on staff at Harvest Bible Chapel and is one of the worship leaders/songwriters of Vertical Church Band – an incredible community of artists and songwriters whose aim is to serve the local church with great new songs.

This conversation was so fun. Meredith was kind enough to take my call before she was about to lead worship for a conference, and as she rocked her little baby girl to sleep (that’s why you hear some sweet noises in the background :)).
