Krista said, I couldnt figure out how my demo ended up in Canada. I started going through cards I had collected, and found a card from the Attack Group from a music conference I had attended two years before. I had written a note on the card that said, will call if interested. I couldnt believe I got a call almost two years after attending the conference, said Krista.Kristas CD, By Way of Love, which was produced by Berry, was released in Canada in 2005 and is currently available online. The album features songs from top writers in the gospel, country, and pop industries, and Kristas songwriting is also featured on four tracks.
The predominant themes of the album are self-confidence, love and inspiration, overcoming obstacles, and the importance of dreaming big. Each person has an important purpose, and to pursue dreams is a vital part of fulfilling that purpose. My hope is that people will be encouraged to press on, keep believing in their dreams, and not settle for less than the best God has for them, said Krista.
Shortly after recording By Way of Love, World Visions Christian Childrens Fund of Canada selected the title track as the theme song for their 2004 fall infomercial campaign. I was so excited to play even a small part in changing the lives of these children. Everett and I immediately went to the World Vision website to learn more about the organization and we decided to sponsor a girl from Brazil named Luene. We have been the ones truly blessed by Luene and her family, said Krista.
In 2005, Krista inquired about ways to get more involved with World Vision and last summer she became a World Vision Artist Associate. This partnership with World Vision allows Krista to fuse her music and ministry with the mission of encouraging people to become child sponsors.Over the last year Krista has shared her music ministry and the opportunity of child sponsorship with people in churches and communities in Texas.In September of 2006 she was a special guest vocalist at the Brazilian General Council of the Assemblies of God Convention in Sao Paulo, Brazil. This was Krista’s second mission’s trip to Brazil where she has ministered in cities such as, Rio De Janeiro, Recife, Garanhuns, and Sao Paulo.“The last two years I have been blessed beyond measure, even through difficult obstacles and health issues that have come my way. My heart is truly reflected through the music on my CD, and through my work with World Vision. No matter what ultimately happens with the CD, my prayers have been answered, my purpose reaffirmed, and my mission and ministry made clear,†said Krista.
