Worship
"A huge part of what I am called to do is write worship music to the Lord for the Church to sing. I know that as believers we are called to gather in His name and praise Him for being good to us. I lead worship at church in order to bring me and the people closer to God, inviting Him into a place to encounter Him. Writing music for that purpose in my ultimate calling as a psalmist unto the Lord. it is one of my favorite things to do." - Canon
