Terrian has built a reputation for pairing gospel-rooted vocals with honest songs of faith, hope, and perseverance. Her 17-track second album, Mad Big World, arrives August 21, 2026, and explores testimony, joy, honest faith, and trusting God’s timing. Ahead of its release, the Memphis-born artist spoke with NewReleaseToday at the premiere of Angel Studios’ Miracle, a documentary-style series narrated by Bear Grylls that explores extraordinary real-life medical stories through firsthand accounts, cinematic reenactments, expert insights, and music from Christian artists. Terrian’s song “Testimony” is featured in the series, and she reflected on both answered prayers and painful losses while pointing to redemption through Jesus as the greatest miracle.

Why does Miracle, this series—and the subject of miracles—matter to you personally?

Miracles are a huge part of the Christian faith. We read about them in Scripture, and I also think it’s beautiful to experience real-life miracles and be encouraged by other people’s stories.

When I wrote “Testimony,” I was wrestling because our community didn’t see that kind of miracle happen for someone we loved. But I had to come to terms with the fact that it happens for some people and doesn’t happen for others. Still, the miracle of eternal life is such a significant one.

Being able to proclaim that through “Testimony”—that this is my testimony, that I have been redeemed by the blood of Jesus—is such a beautiful miracle.

You’ve hosted the We Love Christian Music Awards, you’re opening for hip-hop artist Aaron Cole on tour, and your album has connected with so many listeners. What can fans look forward to next musically?

There’s a lot going on with the music. We’ve been writing so much. It has been incredible to see the Lord use these songs to minister to people. I hear so many different stories, and I feel so small in the midst of it because the music is reaching so many people. I’m grateful that people hear what they need to hear at the right moment. That’s the power of the Holy Spirit.
