I want to reach the world and touch hearts for Him", he explains.
"I’m thankful every day that Jesus saved me when I was 8 years old. During Sunday School class over 35 years ago, I knew without a doubt that I had sinned against almighty God, and I needed Jesus more than ever to come into my life. Praise the Lord, Jesus answered that call in that moment, and I knew that my heart belonged to Him forever.
Adapting to His way of life was difficult at times, due to my maturing into a youth & an adult, but I always felt a sense of His Presence for I know He has never abandoned me. Even though I postponed the Plans He had for my life, I’m thankful that He has always been by my side pressing me onward. Just after college in the year 2000, my dad, myself, and two friends, Ashley & Tracy, would always meet on Saturday Nights at our old church to sing Gospel music together with no one there, but us. It was during this time that God moved my heart into the music ministry.
I remember, God placing on my mom’s heart a song called Rise Again, by Dallas Holmes, and she asked me to sing it at church. It was on that day that I felt an anointing of God’s hand of mercy literally reach down from Heaven, and touch my heart filling me with more of Him, a passion to sing for His Glory. "
