Thank you Your music is beautiful. My husband and I had Simple Things played at our wedding reception. I listened to your lullaby music and sang along with both of my children when we would be awake in the wee hours together. I play your music all day behind me when I am teaching my 1st grade classroom. The children call it my "quiet" music. At times I secretly refer to it as my sweet sanity. :) Thank you for shariing your gift of music. Submitted By: Kristy Klemm

We listen to your music in our home and it has provided a good example to our youngest daughter of how inspirational music can be clean and honoring to God. Our daughter Eden, has one of your songbooks now and my prayer is that she will play from it! Thank you for giving so much of yourself in your music! Submitted By: mary lee

Piano Music I have to say I personally love playing your romantic melodies.As a piano teacher, I find sometimes it is really difficult to introduce classical music to some of my students. I will then take them out of the lesson book for a little while and offer one of your pieces, which keeps them motivated! So thanks for the beautiful music! Submitted By: Christina

Talents come from the Lord. Thank you again. Submitted By: Sami Farah

Love of My Life The first time I heard Love of My Life, I was just falling asleep after working a long night shift. It so perfectly sounded like a felt about my then boyfriend, that I had to get up and go buy the album. I used that song as the first dance at our wedding, and I have sung it to both of our children as babies. Thank you. Submitted By: Aimee

Singer Hi Jim, Oh wow, I can't believe you may actually be reading this, Lol :). Honestly ive just purchased your cd, "The Gift," from a local store and I can't wait to hear it! I decided to look you up on google to find out more about you, and your history in music. I am a huge fan of "Romantic melodies," there's just something about an artist's music that makes them all the more interesting as an artist!..I myself sing romantic melodies also, but im not famous by any means. I would love one day to have a chance to record with you, or even get to talk with you, that would be a dream come true. Im hoping to get some demo's made very soon, maybe I can send you a copy if that's ok with you. I have seen your latest cd "Faith" in stores all around, and im hoping to get that one next. Is there any way I can request an autographed picture and messages from you? That would be so kind. Thank you for blessing the world with your amazing pressence, gifted talents, angelic looks and kind-hearted freind
