Oh, \u2018cause I feel it, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wilson\u2019s unique blend of country music with faith-centric lyrics has made her a popular singer for fans of both country and CCM. She was the 2022 Dove Awards New Artist of the Year and the 2022 K-Love Fan Awards Female Artist of the Year. Now, she has a nomination in a major country music category.<\/p>\n<p>Wilson told ChristianHeadlines her music is a \u201cChristian-country mix.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy heart is to do Christian music forever,\u201d she told ChristianHeadlines. \u201cI love the Christian community and I love getting to share Jesus with people. But I also feel called to take that message into the world outside of the Christian market. So one of the ways that I feel very called is just by my songs being about the Lord and about His goodness and talking about Him, but the music sounding very country. And so it&#8217;s appealing to other people too, which has been really fun to see how people in other genres that don&#8217;t listen to Christian music are listening to my music, because they feel this pull towards it, because of the sound of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wilson\u2019s next album, <em>Rebel<\/em>, releases April 19.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Anne Wilson - Rain In The Rearview (Official Music Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VABd5IHNeSQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><em>Image credit: Capitol Christian Music Group<\/em><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><em>Michael Foust has covered the intersection of faith and news for 20 years.
