Critique

Jekalyn Carr is an amazing singer. I got the opportunity to listen to her sing and preach at my church a couple weeks ago and it was absolutely magnificent. She inspires me constantly with the amazing things she’s doing because she’s around the same age as I am. She inspires me to stay in the right lane with God and continue down the right path.
