Endings.


I've started writing for my next project and an interesting theme keeps showing up...endings. Not in terms of finality, but endings as the start of something new...something better. I don't usually write a whole lot about resolution. I'm usually more drawn to the struggle, the process. And that's still in these new… Continue

The Other Side Of Interruption

The new album releases today! I am anxious to share these songs with everyone. I hope that you, in some way, connect. They are human songs; stripped of pretense...at least as much as possible with my experiences and filters. After my own "interruption" two years ago, I was determined to write without censoring myself. That's where lines like "I am a liar. I have always been." from the song Risk or "For being a slave to everything but us. For choosing drinks instead of love." from I Forgive come… Continue

An. Interrupted. Life.

Two years ago my pleasant little life was interrupted. Everything had been rolling along great and then...I woke up one day and couldn't walk for a while. Over the next week or so, I started passing out and forgetting things. This wasn't supposed to happen. It was definitely not in the plan. I mean, I had a great career, great friends and family and I just started writing and recording again. Not to mention, I had been experiencing a spiritual awakening. I mean "God, this isn't right!"Continue

Who will make the first move?



This makes me more than mad
Even now, I’m accusing in my head
I should be extending mercy
But all I see is red

I need forgiveness
I want my family back
But it’s easier to feed this anger
Go on one last attack



Those words are from the bridge of a song called "My Family Fell A… Continue

An un-angry blog.

So often, when I read a blog post, it is someone ranting about something. One person firmly believes that his/her thoughts are correct and someone else's thoughts are not. Whether it's on "myccm" or some other place, blogs are full of arguments and judgements...and there certainly is a place for that. We need discussion to work out right and wrong, good and bad-in terms of art, music, movies, relationships, or life in general. But the more I study, read, learn, create and live; the more I realiz… Continue

Art. Music. Justice.

Art. Music. Justice (orignally posted on myspace Oct. 21, 2008)

This was truly a profound evening...beyond seeing an artist I've waited to see for 17 years...(Charlie Peacock) . I have been involved with the cause to end human trafficking and modern day slavery through donations, resources, etc. The cause of the oppressed has always been inside my nature. Though I'm not one to be greatly affected by cause presentations. But tonight, I was deeply moved by the music, the stories, the images and t… Continue

This World of Ours

This World of Ours


As I sit here on a Sunday night, I find myself in a reflective mood. I always try to prepare myself for the week ahead. As some of you may know, I am in the business of mental health. On a daily basis, I hear stories that should shock, disturb and move me. But, mostly I numb myself to what I hear. I think if I allowed myself to truly feel it all, I would not be effective. My emotions would overtake my logic; my compassion would turn to enabling. I am not a "bleeding heart" b… Continue

Thank you for the reply! Our biblical counselor at church said he knew of a place in Tennessee and would talk to a person he knew there. I have not heard if he has done so or not. My husband said today that he does want counseling and marriage counseling. He also started a bible study that I had sent to him. I pray that this will open his eyes and heart to Jesus. After his 9 month sentence, I don't think he will have probation (although it says so). Then he will be free to leave Michigan. So maybe God is going to lead us to Tennessee and this program. Please pray for us, as you say you already are! Thank you for the friendship.

I just read your latest blog and I have to say that I need to say I am sorry to people that don't deserve it. My husband first off. Thank you for that post.
