JEFF TURNER II, DAVID INGRAM

Jake Anglin recently marked a significant milestone—three years as a member of Brian Free and Assurance. For Jake, who grew up in Watkinsville, GA, this journey has been both a blessing and a dream come true. Having started singing at the age of 16, Jake has spent the majority of his life immersed in music, but joining Brian Free and Assurance brought new meaning to his career.

Reflecting on his time with the group, Jake shares, “I can’t remember, like, what was life like before this? But at the same time, it feels like it’s just flown by for me.” His deep connection with the group’s music goes back to his teenage years. “The Live in New York City album was the first album I ever got. I just enjoyed following the ministry and all of that through my adult years.”

Before joining Brian Free and Assurance, Jake served as a worship pastor, ministering in various churches over the years. “I’ve been in the ministry in some capacity since I was 18, but always followed their music. Always kind of just kept up with it and stuff,” he recalls. His journey with the group feels like the fulfillment of a long-held dream. “It was just one of those God things. He opened the door, and here we are.”

For Jake, the past three years have been a testament to faith and timing. As he continues to share his talents with Brian Free and Assurance, his story serves as an inspiration to others who are pursuing their own God-given paths. “It’s a blessing, man. It’s really cool,” Jake concludes, capturing the joy and gratitude that define his experience with the group.
