Today I am filled with joy as I woke to the wonderful one day a year that I call my Birthday. On this day I was brought into this world by two wonderful parents, who have raised me to know Jesus, to love Him, and to understand how to be a Christian. For that I’m thankful. Today I want to take a little road down history. Here comes the timeline of the last 28 years.

1990- I was saved in the van while traveling from church to church with my parents southern gospel band. (my best friend Nathan was saved at the same time)
