3. Were you Christian before being a songwriter? Or vice versa?
I accepted Christ in my life as a young teenager unfortunately my fellowship with God was broken at age 21. I have always written poems and I wrote a couple of songs while my fellowship with God was broken. I was in my 40’s when my fellowship was restored. On 1-16-00 during a service at my church (Monument of Faith where the pastor is Apostle Richard D. Henton in Chicago) my pastor laid hands on me and spoke these words into my life. He said “you feel like you have lost so much time and that God will not use you but eye has not seen, ear has not heard, neither has it entered into your heart, the things that God is going to do through you”. I will never forget that service and the sermon he preached “What you need is a breath of fresh air” because on that night I received a refilling of the Holy Spirit. When I went home that night I wrote my first gospel song “Holy” because my soul was overwhelmed at the mercy and holiness of God.
4. What are your thoughts on the state of the world these days?
We have seen some of the worst tragedies of our times and yet those tragedies have brought out the best in us. 911, Katrina, Tsunami, the New Orleans flood these were terrible things but the vast majority of humanity rose to the challenge by reaching out and embracing humanity. Spiritually, American particularly and the world have been so blessed. Yet, we are so far from honoring God for his blessing. When I think of how one woman took away the privilege of prayer out of school, the fight to keep the Ten Commandments out of the court house, the push to take “God” out of the pledge of allegiance it is both a sad and frightening state. America was built on a foundation of honoring and believing God. Our schools were better, our government was better when America Bless God.
5. Where do you perform? I am a songwriter not a singer. I often say God has a sense of humor because my singing ability is very limited. The songs on the CD are all Demo. I don’t perform but I’m looking for recording artists who want songs of inspiration and hope, songs as my pastor would say “with a message for this mess-up age”
