Herald - CD

There is a verse in the Bible that makes my heart pound... And of this gospel, I have been appointed a herald.' 2 Timothy 1:11 This is why I write. This is why I sing. It's why I share my music with whoever will listen. I love God and I want to respond to His whispers with all I have, and with the gifts He's given me. For the last 10 years, I've composed a new Christmas song, trying to capture a fresh message from a new voice or perspective. 'Herald' is a collection of these songs, along with a couple traditional carols, and a humorous parody. It was produced by Sam Allen at Fine Tone Studio, Oronoco, MN. I have been writing songs since I was a tween growing up in the Midwest. Back then they were mostly about love and broken hearts. Now I write about my faith, my sweet, silly family, my observations on chocolate and coffee and other human attachments, and, still, the heartbreaks. Hope in the midst of the heartbreaks. I stick pretty close to home, performing for groups and leading worship in churches in the mid-west. I graduated from Winona State with a teaching degree and now I am a homeschooling mom of 3 great kids, the wife of Mr. Incredible, a blessed daughter, a friend of many amazing women, and a student of the Bible. I am filled with gratitude for this life and purpose God has given me. Soli deo gloria.
