My name is Steve and I live in Remlap, Alabama, which is a small town about 30 minutes or so from downtown Birmingham. I usually just say I'm from Birmingham since some people actually know where that is. I love music. I mean love music. Read my blogs and look at my friends list and you'll get the picture. I started a ministry at Grace and Truth church called Resurrection Music Hall which puts on Christian concerts, it's right up my alley. My dream is to own my own Christian rock venue and promote concerts for a living so this ministry was a great training ground. The ministry folded for various reasons after three great shows, but I intend to see it restart at some point, likely at another church since I haven't been to Grace and Truth in a while. Or maybe something will happen to allow me to go straight into opening the business on my own. I like to write some poetry and song lyrics. Below are a few more tidbits of info about me. Between what's here and the stuff on the other side of the page you should have a pretty good idea who I am and what I like. If there's anything else you want know just ask.
Most Memorable Life Experience:In 1995 I went on a missions trip with my church to Romania. We spent 10 days in the Carpathian Mountains teaching conversational English to about 70 students. We would teach during the day and have a big bonfire every night. Our college pastor would teach a Bible lesson and then we would all sing songs around the fire and talk until the wee hours of the morning. It was truly an amazing experience, despite the complete and total lack of electricity and running water.

What Would She Be Like?
Spiritual and Emotional:
She's a committed Christian and active in her church. She would support me in ministry or even better, join me in it. She would pray with me and study the Word with me. She's kind, gentle, and affectionate. She's lots of fun without being loud and obnoxious, but also knows when to be serious. She can appreciate my sense of humor...since I don't have the body of a Greek god I'm pretty much sunk if I can't make her laugh.
Physical:
I'm fairly easy to please here. She has a pretty face, she's soft, and she smells great. She likes to wear designer fragrances and shop at Bath and Body Works. I read an interview with Felicity's Keri Russell once where she said her bathroom was full of fruity lotions and body washes. I remember thinking "That's my kind of girl. I'll have one Keri Russell to go please." Basically she would just be really girly.
Long Hair or Short Hair:Definitely prefer long, but it's not a rule.
Eyes:Yes, I would prefer that she has eyes.
So that's what she'd be like. When I find her I'm going to make her feel like the most loved, honored, and cherished woman on the planet. BTW, do you know anybody like this? If you do let me know. I'd love to meet her.
Do you have any dreams or ambitions you'd like to talk about?: I'd love to open a Christian music club/hangout where people could come and hear live music and just hang out in a safe atmosphere. It would have a CD jukebox filled with Christian music and local and national bands playing a few times a week. It's a tall order to finance but our God dreams much bigger than we do so I know He can make it come true. And maybe a small indie record label too. I want to help Christian bands get their music out and have places to play, and also have a place for people to come and seee them. I also think that I'll involved in youth ministry for a long time to come.
