"I am a follower of Jesus Christ, he directs my career and life. I play music "with" and "for" people who are in need of hearing the Gospel, and need to see it lived out in everyday life.
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
