It amazes me what God has
done in my life. He has truly blessed me above any measure.
As a lot of people know of my past in the country music field. I
signed with RCA Records
and had 11 top ten hits and 1 number one record in the country charts.
I was nominated for
new make vocalist of the year, had one of the biggest selling records of the
year, and my
band won traveling band of the year. We were playing all over the
world and I thought I
had it made.
Through all the fame and fortune I was still unsatisfied and knew that there
was something
still missing in my life so one day I decided to give it all up, and I quit
the music scene. I
kicked around with several businesses including some retail & wholesale
stores. I even
started a night club. Looking back I can see how God had his hand in
this and was preparing
me for a day yet to come. I was still unsatisfied and
searching for fulfillment, when a friend
invited me to church ( not exactly what I was looking for at that time )
but I went anyway.
Guess what?
I knew what that void was in my life. I closed the night club and
began kicking around other
business ideas. All the while still visiting my friends church.
I got married to my wife Diane,
which God surely sent to me. We both got saved in 1997 and never
looked back.
It's so amazing how the road of
life can change when God comes on the scene GOD IS GOOD!
I started playing and singing in church and I was happier than I had ever
been before. But I
knew God was calling me to do more, so I began the task of putting a band
together, not an
easy thing to do! God confirmed what he wanted me to do when he
started bringing
musicians into my life from the past. How awesome God is to take super
musicians from
around the country, save their souls, deliver them from bondage, and
relocate them in one
spot to form: FAITH RIDERS BAND. We are all dedicated to spreading
his word
through our music.
Now "we're having more fun with Jesus in our Band." God Bless!!
