Quotes:
I went straight from high school to Bible college for two years. Then I started doing music right out of Bible college full time. I did independent stuff for three years.
I think a lot of the writing, you know, I write is just kind of like that where, you know. I write exactly how I'm feeling sometimes, and hardships that I'm going through. But I always end up, like the choruses are like, God, You are good. God, you're faithful. You know, I know You understand, You're right here by my side. All these different things. And I just say very personal experiences that I've been through. I mean, it's not always detrimental thing.
A lot of times it's just through personal experiences, cause I mean. The song called Restored, that will be on my next album, that basically has been what God has done, you know, through losing my wife to cancer three years ago to now God bringing me a new wife, I'm having a child now. It's very exciting.
Yeah, I did my own stuff. Then I got an e-mail from the record company I'm with now saying Hey, we've heard about you a lot
send us a demo. So I did and that's how it happened.
If you stay in the word of God then you'll get a fresh leading of new things to share. I share my testimony of what God has done, but there's certain things that when I slip into the Word and let God speak to me through His Word and it's a fresh thing for me to share
