WHO I AM

If I were asked to summarize my entire ministry in a few short words, I would say "Knowing God." Whether you reject or embrace Him, it is important to me that everyone knows the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. The lyrics of my songs are the very expression of that God given desire. Knowing God goes much deeper than salvation from sin or deliverance from hell fire It's being connected intimately with a love that is greater than anything you could ever imagine. And, I want so much for the whole world to discover the "Treasure" that I have found.

The enemy has been extremely shrewd in putting up barriers that keep us from seeing who our Savior really is. We have been so focused on the things that are inconsequential that we have missed what's important. It's not about rules, style of clothes, or music; it's not about race, age, culture or denomination; it's all about relationship. When we don't see ourselves fitting in with people who live or behave different from us we disregard it and walk away without ever getting to know what's really there. But if we can stop looking at people, and start looking for the Lord, we would find what everyone is essentially seeking for. Isn't that what truly matters?

How sad it is that our world continually tries to live without the Lord... strategizing, devising and theorizing; yet, unable to obtain the inner peace and fulfillment that ironically only comes from the very source we are trying to eliminate. Look at the current state of our world. I think it's safe to conclude that our way is not working! Wake up people, "WE NEED GOD." HE is more of a reality than life. HE is life! If I can get that message across to as many people as possible, my purpose will have been fulfilled.

For those of you who have already encountered that great love, never let go and NEVER GIVE UP, especially those who have been commissioned to do a great work for God. We have to continuously "fight the good fight of faith" in order to conquer the demon without and the demon within. Always remember "...the kingdom of God suffers violence, and the violent take it by force."


WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT

I dedicate this section to everyone who has had their share of struggles.  Never give up!  There are many obstacles that come with being commissioned to do a great work for God.  We have to continuously “fight the good fight of faith” in order to conquer the demon without and the demon within.  Always remember “…the kingdom of God suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.”
