“Grow where your planted”


Jackie is passionate about serving those who are called to spread the gospel through music. She feels that her position at the GMA is more of a calling than a job. Jackie also gives insight into what the GMA is all about, saying that the GMA is not defined by style but actually defined by the message, or calling.


“We [GMA] are a voice on behalf of all God’s creative people.”


Jackie has been led by the Lord throughout her entire career. Her faith in God is evident in everything she does and says, and in this interview she gives so many nuggets of wisdom we all can ponder on. 


“Know your purpose. Why do you want to sing and who do you want to sing to?”

Om Podcasten

Many want to "make it" in the music industry. Few successfully make it in. Even fewer stay in. The goal of this podcast is to help bring some clarity to your path towards a music career. We want to help you not only get in, but stay in. To this end, hosts Seth Mosley and X O'Connor will dig deep with luminaries of the music industry. These are people who have "made it" and today have very notable careers. Many are Grammy winners and work with prominent record labels. Some of our listeners might be on the creative side as a songwriter, artist, producer, or engineer. Others might be on the business side interested in marketing, management, A&R, or radio. The "Made It In Music Podcast" is designed to serve both sides; we are certain you will find a place in this community. How do you get a record deal, get a hit artist to cut your song, build fans, or get on tours? We tackle these questions and more. Before you know it, you will be able to say that you too have "Made It In Music!" Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
