Saturday was a blast!
Thank you Gabi and Forrest for making us feel so welcome, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY Gabi :)
Kaeli sang 15 songs in two sets and sounded lovely as always!
Several times she gave me chill bumps, as she sang with emotion.
I wrapped it up with "I Believe You Do", and then we had us a good ol' fashioned jam with Forrest rockin' out with power chords, and Rachel strumming away on acoustic guitar... some blues, some rock, some praise tunes, and all FUN!
Having my beautiful family there was precious.
Seeing my Mama's beautful face as she enjoyed the show, is something I will never forget.
It was truly a GREAT time for all present!
Praise God!!!
Sunday morning was wonderful!
The folks at Oasis of Grace Foursquare were so supportive and loving!
Monday night was a beautiful experience as well!
Michelle and I are so proud of how Kaeli Anne ministered :)
A big thanks to Dave Tackett, my incredible inlaws Ken and Roberta Wilder, and the precious believers at Oasis of Grace!!!
Hopefully next time we can see Pastors Chris and Deedee :D
CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO TOUGHER THAN HELLMy Grandpa Ivan was a "man's man". He was an outdoorsman whose skills in hunting and fishing were unmatched among his peers. What he lacked in stature, he made up for in grit. Unafraid to go to blows with any man, he was proud and wiry strong.My uncle summed him up in a thick, resonant voice - a voice like his father's, "Boy, your grandpa was tougher than hell." I knew then and know now that in the world of men where grandpa walked, this was how he was viewed.As lung cancer (he was a lifelong smoker) cruelly sapped the life from him, he made peace with his Saviour. In the end through the grace of God, he really was "tougher than hell". He went to be with the Lord in his fifties.With his favorite song, "Amen Jesus", playing in his heart, he crossed over to the wilds of heaven.I was a preteen then. Disillusioned with my grandpa's death, I thought God had turned His back on us. Not long after, I turned my back on God... But that is another story.To [...]

I have been involved with music most of my life, but I have to admit that my beautiful daughter Kaeli Anne Moriah has injected new joy into my musical endeavors!
I have stretched out and tried my hand at directing a music video, hers to be exact : )
We did the whole project on a true "shoestring", but even on a "shoestring", St. Pete's beach is AMAZING!
Please watch the video and let me know what you think!

"Now as they led Him away, they laid hold of a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, and on him they laid the cross that he might bear it after Jesus." Luke 23:26Jesus, the One who commanded His followers to take up their cross and follow Him, was so torn from the horrors of His scourging that He could not continue to carry His own cross. Let that sink in for a moment... The Almighty God allowed Himself to be so abused for you and me that the weight of the cross became too much for Him. Jesus needed help. The Roman soldiers pulled a man from the crowd, Simon a Cyrenian, from Africa. Then they roughly laid the cross, already soaked with Jesus' blood, on his back. Simon had to carry Jesus' cross! ...And I complain about mine :-(Jesus still had to make the sacrifice, for the cross was still His, yet the lessons in this agonizingly weak moment are central to the Christian walk.1) If Jesus needed help to carry His cross, how foolish and proud must I be to believe that [...]
