The Son is rising on a new day!

About Me

Over the past 14 years, Coty Sloan has been discovering his gifting as a violinist/composer/songwriter, and now minister. Allowing the Lord to mold that gifting, Coty has traveled nationally and internationally over the past 3 years working along side worship teams, ministering solo with violin-led music for churches and conferences, and has most recently recorded a healing/instrumental album entitled, 'Melodies Of The Spirit'.
Of the new album, Coty says, "These songs are anointed, and the music is excellent; but the songs themselves can not heal anyone. But if for one moment, Jesus reveals himself to a person through one of these melodies, then the objective of this CD has been accomplished. This album is merely a tool, so that people might see Jesus and hear Him in and through a musical expression."
When asked about his recording experienced, Coty explained, "I know I have been given a huge gift, the ability to adequately express myself through music. The only way that was possible was with the help of some very talented individuals, and the supernatural provision of the Lord. Overall, I pray that through the purchase of this CD that the Lord would minister to people in such a unique way. And when I say people, I mean just that, all people, not just Christians. I believe the provision for whatever people may have need for has already been paid for, whether a physical healing, peace in their life, whatever the need I pray that this music would help to minister to that need through the Holy Spirit, and that they would be introduced to the miracle worker."
