About Me

Please see http://www.richardschooping.com for up-to-date information.


Welcome, It is so wonderful that you are here.


I am currently singing and speaking in the metro Detroit area and am looking to perform, open shows, etc. for any Christian, Gospel, Worship, etc, acts in or near Detroit.


My CD "I am Grateful" will be available in December, 2008.


I am seeking band members who are inspired by the sound and message for shows. The vision is expansive. I see a show with an orchestra, choir, video screens, and countless being washing in the love of God: that which embraces and of which we are integral.
Contact me if you are interested at [email protected]
Talk with you soon.
Love,
Rich
In my humble opinion
Enlightenment is not seeing golden palaces in the sky,
It is being present so that you feel the wheel as you drive.
It is walking outside and smelling the trees, instead of being lost within
inner conversations or arguments.
It is being aware enough to smile at a stranger in a department store
when all they need is to feel God.

We are ALWAYS awake behind a veil of self-absorption
We are not trying to awaken
We are trying to forget the idea that we are not

You Are a Mermaid
You are a total daydreamer, and people tend to think you're flakier than you actually are.
While your head is often in the clouds, you'll always come back to earth to help someone in need.
Beyond being a caring person, you are also very intelligent and rational.
You understand the connections of the universe better than almost anyone else. What Mythological Creature Are You?

.. My result for What’s your humanity quotient? is Your humanity quotient is high.:
Option 1: Your humanity quotient is high. You are a giver. You will do all that you can to help others. Its giving that is in your blood. There are very few like you in this world so be proud of yourself. But once in a while, you need to think about yourself.
