About the Book

The voices on these pages have a direct connection to my being influenced by worship and Spirit. They came to me during my moments of both quiet reflection time with God and through my engagement with the lives of of other believers of Christ. This is a celebration and a proclamation! It is an endeavor to recognize who the Savior is in our lives and how our belief in Him can be transformative in our world. You may use these voices as stand alone pieces or you may string each moment together with praise dancing or spirit filled songs influenced by the Gospel. However one decides to experience or present them, I urge you all to take a moment to get into a quiet place in order to usher in the Holy Spirit. Enjoy the praise, experience the faith, and above all continue to lift up the name of Jesus.
