About Me


Myspace Layouts - Solid Colors Myspace Layouts
Myspace Codes - Myspace Generators - Myspace Backgrounds
Daughter of the KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS… happily married to my best friend and sweetie, Darrin… Have four incredible children that are gifts from the Lord (Daniel 17, Emily 15, David 13, and Andrew 9)… We live on a little hill-top in McKinney, Texas where we pretend that it is a farm… we even have little pygmy goats. I have taught the Word of God for years at ladies retreats, bible studies, and such. Worship is my life-blood. I love to sing. I can’t get enough of God. I love teenagers and old people. They love me too. I like coffee too much. My favorite job ever was at LCA where I got to be Dean of Student Life and pour into the lives of some of the most amazing young people I’ve ever met. They are still my friends. This generation ROCKS. Now days, I get to spend my days writing songs, hanging out with Jesus, artsy types, worship leaders, and other writers. I teach private songwriting and songwriting classes and also custom write, speak at conferences, and lead worship. It’s a good life.

I'd like to meet:

Jesus... the real Jesus from the Bible... the one that heals people and paints the sky each night in living color ... (vs. the bobble head, t-shirt, bumper sticker one He's been sometimes made out to be...) Buck Herring once said, "Jesus was never popular. We can't make Him 'more palatable' to our generation. He was despised and rejected. We cannot put him in 21st century trappings and expect that everybody is going to love Him. He is King of kings and He calls you to die to yourself-that will never be popular”That is so true.. He did not live for Himself... He sacrificed. The fact that I am alive today knowing what I deserve makes me a product of his love-decision to sacrifice ...What an amazing God/Man He is... He gave the ultimate gift of His life for mine and that's the only reason I have one. What more is there? Jesus is my greatest love... my true first love... Come quickly, Lord Jesus!
