Visit Indieheaven Today!DANGER: explosive material in a small package! "Watch out people, she'll change your life!" (Steve Bradley of the UK band "Imaginary Friend")Don't be deceived by the sweet voice and quiet demeanor; an encounter with the ministry of Jean Watson is surely an encounter with the cross of Jesus Christ. No one walks away untouched in some way! "Not quite sure what you did (or strictly speaking what God did through you!) but it feels like a fire that no hose can put out.", said Kev Pierce regarding Jean's first visit to England in 2007.Now the tour book is filling for 2008 as Jean balances her time between ministry on the road and time at home with her children. A classically-trained violinist, Jean delved into the Christian recording world as a singer/songwriter in 2004. Since that time, her voice and testimony of God's grace and healing have touched thousands of lives around the world. The power of Jean's message comes out of her unique ability to minister and perform with a balance of musical excellence and childlike transparency. God uses Jean to break barriers of the heart through her willingness to share the story of her own weakness and healing. Having come through the pain of depression and divorce and having seen her son miraculously delivered from drug addiction, Jean has faith for miracles and fully expects God to work miracles in the lives of those that she touches. Hearing Jean sing and speak brings an infusion of faith in the love and power of God. Her passion for God is absolutely contagious!Jean's passion for God is joined by a deep compassion for people. Through her own brokenness, she has a compassion for the hurting which draws people to her. It is not uncommon for a concert to close with people lining up for prayer, which is the heart of Jean’s ministry. It is this love - this childlike belief that even small things can change the world - that drives Jean. Her purpose is to share faith and hope with as many as possible, using all her gifts to breathe hope to the hurting. It is Jean's heart to give away as much of her proceeds as possible to charities around the world.The power of Jean’s message in no way overshadows the beauty and excellence of her music, however. Trained as a classical musician, Jean shares her heart through music that is truly a genre all its own. Through a love of music that transcends style, her sound is eclectic and unique with strong classical and folk influences. A consummate singer, songwriter, arranger, and violinist, Jean insists on excellence in everything she does. The beauty of her music is matched only by the beauty of the message of God’s love that it carries.In 2006, Jean released a new CD of her original songs and hymn arrangements entitled, "Unveiled". "Unveiled" is Jean's first CD using the talents of Irish producer Joni McCabe and the City of Prague Philharmonic. For the first time, we hear Jean's talent enhanced by some of Europe's finest musicians. The songs, the arrangements, the performances are excellent in their own right. The heart behind the music shines and inspires...even beyond what the ear can hear.Jean maintains a full concert schedule in the US and in England where she was recently named "Female Praise and Worship Artist USA" by the UK New Christian Music Alliance. She is also in demand as a speaker/Bible teacher at church and women’s ministry events. When she is not traveling, Jean enjoys playing in the Kalamazoo Symphony and spending time with her four children.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4THE PROFILE
