When did you invite Jesus into your heart?

Music Preference?
Music to me is not a preference, it is life. I am a closet Ray Stevens fanatic. Music is a language and different songs speak to me at different times. Most of all I love to use it for worship both corporate and private.

Favorite Song/Hymn?
I am always saying this is my favorite song. I guess I most like to sing “I Bowed on My Knees and Cried Holy”. Some other favorites are Be Thou My Vision, Holy Ground, There’s Just Something About That Name, O The Blood of Jesus, Fly To Jesus …well there are just too many.

Favorite Movie?
Imitation of Life, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, Princess Bride, and now Facing the Giants…(there is also Sound of Music, Lord of the Rings, can you tell I like movies?)

Hobbies?
Computers and electronic gadgets, gardening a little, most of all getting into my children and what they like.

Favorite Vacation Point?
The Beach, the mountains, the grocery store…when you have 6 children any get away can be exciting…

Favorite Verse?
I Peter 3:15-16, “But sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence; and keep a good conscience so that in the thing in which your are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.”

Favorite ……..?
Practical Joke…is causing the computers screens in our office to flip upside down.

What do you enjoy about your ministry position?
I love being part of a team of people with a common commitment to Christ and the Church. A place where everyone sees their job or calling as part of the big picture. I love it when people are moved by music in our ministry.

The love and calling of God has changed my life. I often wonder how people make it through the day without Christ. He is my friend, but more importantly He is the Awesome, Almighty Creator of the Universe. Isn’t that incredible?
