During the holidays, everyone needs a break from studying for exams and Christmas shopping. I wanted to put together a diverse tour that rocks in many musical directions but always points to Christ.

I'm not going to put out a Christmas CD until it's coming out of me naturally.

Life is serious, but I do think that God wants us to enjoy the things He's given us, like music.

Focusing on the negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult

People love that you're human and that we're frail and we face the same situations. Honesty tends to communicate with people better than standing up there like you have an 'S' on your chest.

I am passionate about God, about Jesus, and what His influences do to me.

Literally as I walk into the studio I say, "God, hollow me of all my junk. Hollow me of my insecurity, my pride and my doubt. Make me hollow enough that you can breathe something through me that would turn eyes to you." And whether that's a song or a conversation you're going to have with a co-worker, or whatever you're facing, that's for everybody.
