Bio
I began playing guitar while in college years before becoming a Christian. After receiving Christ as Savior in 1995, my music making was turned over to the Lord as an offering. I attended Bible college and served as full time staff at a local church for eight years. I led the praise/worship at the church for several years, and now am taking steps of faith to minister outside the local church with original songs that I have written.
My musical influences are mostly secular, as I grew up listening to classic rock and roll. Artists such as Bob Dylan, Grateful Dead, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Neil Young, and the Allman Brothers contributed to my initial musical tastes. When I received Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, Keith Green, Passion, Matt Redman, Darrell Evans, Lenny LeBlanc, etc have encouraged me to continue writing songs and singing for the Lord.
Every time I play, I focus my attention on using the gifts I have been given to: 1) glorify God, 2) edify, exhort, and encourage other believers, 3) create a hunger and thirst in unbelievers to know God. I believe that God inhabits our praises, specifically when we are singing a spontaneous new song from the overflow of our hearts. One of my passions is making room in songs for spontaneous expressions of praise, allowing new songs to be birthed in the moment, even seeing congregations joining in the creative process.
