Description: The Fall 2025 Hearn Innovators Series, an event created to celebrate and learn from musicians whose creativity and vision are shaping the landscape of Christian music today. It is in that spirit that we are delighted to have welcomed Sandra McCracken to Baylor University. Sandra is a GRAMMY-nominated, Dove Award-winning singer-songwriter, author, and creative leader based in Nashville. With a career spanning 25 years and 18 solo albums, she has become one of the most prominent voices in modern hymnody and gospel-roots music—known for blending Americana, folk, and sacred tradition into songs that are both deeply personal and spiritually resonant. Sandra’s artistry reflects the very heart of this series—creativity rooted in faith, and innovation that serves the church. We are honored to have her with us this evening. Please join me in giving a warm welcome to Sandra McCracken.

Location: Baylor University, Waco, Texas
