First of all, the word "Band" is a misnomer with regard to me. With the exception of the Lord I am working on this project alone. With, of course, the support of my loving wife and family.
Several of my songs were co-written with my brother in the Lord and dearest friend Keith Gamblin who went home to be with Jesus on April 9, 2004. I thank the Lord that I have these songs to remember him by.
I am currently serving as the Worship Pastor at Kingman First Assembly of God in Kingman, AZ. However, I am looking forward to branching out in the future and doing some traveling ministry by leading worship and teaching seminars in various venues.
I have over 12 years of ministry experience and more than 20 years experience in music.
Thank you for visiting my soundclick webpage.Band/artist history
I have been in several different bands. In 1988 I had the privilege of opening for Steve Taylor and WhiteCross in a band called Light Brigade.
Shortly thereafter, I chose to go to Bible College to study for the ministry. I majored in Youth Ministry but I remained active in many things musical including two bands I was in during the first two years.
After graduation I went to work as a youth pastor in Key West, Florida. And over time the Lord led me to a point where music became the main tool for me to use in ministry.
I am looking forward to whatever the Lord has planned for my life and ministry.Have you performed in front of an audience?I am currently serving as Worship Pastor at First Assembly of God in Kingman, AZ. There is nothing better for a worship leader than to lead a group of people into the presence of the Almighty God - especially a group of people who truly want to go there.
Your musical influences
My greatest influences were Keith Green when I was younger and in more recent years, Lindell Cooley.
As a songwriter, one of my main influences was Steve Taylor. I love the way he manages to say so much with so few words. I'm sure he learned it from Jesus.What equipment do you use?
Roland XP-80, ZOOM MRS-1266, Takamine Accoustic-Electric, Fender 5-String Jazz BassAnything else?
A few of the songs on this site are from a CD I produced with the late Keith Gamblin. The group was known as Eternal Purpose and the disc was called Follow You.
I re-recorded "Join With The Angels" so that I could use it on a future project.

KEEP LOVING THE LORD.

Of the original three songs posted, I liked this one best. Looking foward to sampling the latest 3.
Good lyrics, great rhythm--easy to dance to--just kidding. Think it's frontline do-able.
Too much emphasis on 911 and heroes. I know, you say, is that possible? Good to always remember--bad to keep rehashing.
I don't know, I kinda liked it with the echo-effect!!!!!! But this is okay too!
