Now fully stepping into 2026, Natalie Grant is looking back on a remarkable and deeply formative 2025-a year defined by transition, growth, and the unmistakable faithfulness of God.
"2025 felt like my heart was being pulled in a thousand directions-stretching, breaking, healing, and growing all at once," Grant shared. "There were so many firsts that it's still hard to summarize."
The year was marked by profound family milestones. Grant celebrated 18th birthdays, prom nights, and graduations, while also navigating the emotional weight of moving her two oldest daughters into college just one week apart. At home, she supported her youngest daughter as she began her first year of high school at a brand-new school, even as the family adjusted to a house that suddenly felt far quieter.
Professionally, 2025 stood as one of the most significant seasons of Grant's career. She recorded and released new music, partnered with a new label, performed at the iconic Indy 500, and appeared on world-renowned stages and platforms including Carnegie Hall and Good Morning America. Alongside these achievements, Grant continued to serve and lead wholeheartedly within her local church-a constant anchor throughout the year.
Amid the whirlwind, Grant also marked a personal milestone, turning 54, a moment she candidly describes as making "all the feelings feel even louder." The year closed on a deeply meaningful note as she spent the holidays with her parents, whom she affectionately calls her heroes.
"It was quite a year," Grant reflected. "And through every high and low, God proved His faithfulness, His kindness, and His love-again and again."
As she moves forward into 2026, Grant remains centered on what matters most. "Serving Jesus. Loving my family. That's what it's all about."
With gratitude for the season behind her and hope for what lies ahead, Natalie Grant enters the new year grounded, thankful, and expectant.
