I've recorded songs that are prayers in different styles, not just in the traditional gospel style that can help and comfort them. It's the words that matter most.

I've been fortunate to live a very full professional life. Most of it has happened through God's graciousness and not from something I've imagined.

If there's something more awaiting me in the future, I'd rather leave it up to God since what He creates is far better than my imagination.

When I stay focused and honest about who I am and the image that I hope to portray, then I won't find myself stranded in unfamiliar territory chasing money or popularity. If the work that you do is quality, then you'll be rewarded. It's also good to stretch musically within the realm of your ability, but not if it compromises your integrity.

I'm so honored to have been a part of something so meaningful that helped to keep so many families and loved ones connected.

Learn your craft well. Take care of your own business. Success (popularity) is fleeting for most, but longevity lies in a quality craft with integrity. Oh, and don't take yourself too seriously.

As a nation we've been faced with so many tragedies since the beginning of this Millennium and I believe we have even more reason to pray. Many people don't feel capable in that area and I wanted to create music that helped them find the words that could bring peace.
