How long have you and your wife been performing together?
We started out 10 years ago when God joined us together. I was working on creating tracks to shop around to record labels for a production deal. My wife and I have always written music together and we started recording and working in the studio…the first song we did together was entitled “No Stopping”.God used that one song to touch peoples hearts and minds and it was amazing to see. We had our own record label with 7 artist signed and our own booking agency. We started focusing on other talents and strayed away from what GOD called us to do as husband and wife in his ministry. Time passed by and we both felt a void because we weren’t doing what GOD called us to do and got caught up in the everyday routine of life. About a year ago my wife and I agreed to take all the songs we wrote and just start recording a flat version to market to record labels for a song writers deal. I decided to allow a few people to hear the songs and they started asking if my wife and I could come and perform at their churches…My wife didn’t want to perform since she had a fear of singing in front of people because she never looked at herself as a singer with a blessed voice. One chruch led to another and then to people from all over the world going onto our web site with possible opportunities to perform overseas. So it’s been almost a year of us performing together as a husband and wife team faithfully.
We plan on joining and collaborating with online media, print media, television media, radio interviews, advertising, performances, and special appearances. We want to do all we can possibly do and allow GOD to do the rest. We trust and believe that he will send us to the correct people and companies.
This is a calling GOD has on our lives and we want to serve him in every way..touching and saving lives even if it is just one! When GOD has placed a talent in your heart, a gift in you, has called you to do his work…no matter what you may think you can’t do, what people say you can’t do, or if you try to run from it….He will have his way. Keep pressing towards what GOD has told you to do he will open the doors and make a way where there is no way. Have hope even if people put you down or it seems like it will never happen because he is the creator of hope….Have faith even when all around you is crumpling in because he is faithful and never lies…. Just as our song titles say…”Ain’t No stopping” because “Troubles Don’t Last” and “Rejoice” in the knowledge that He is GOD and leaves no work undone!
