KEITH'S STORY

          Keith's journey is a story of a God that never gave up on a man. Throughout his life Keith desired creative outlets to express what was inside. He started on guitar at the age of 15 and was in his first band at 17. He had always felt the need to write music and wrote his first few songs  

at the age of 18. At that time he started college, where he would earn a bachelor's degree in music composition and theory. During his college 

 years he wrote music for plays and musicals including:  "A Frontier Tale", a touring live show in which he also played guitar, "The Three Musketeers"  for the Champlain Shakespeare Festival in Burlington, Vermont, "Macbeth" for the Louisville Shakespeare Festival, and many

other productions. It was at this time Keith would make some poor choices, experimenting with drugs and entering into a short lived marriage. He later  moved to Florida and started playing in a band for several years, but began to realize his heart would not be filled on his

current path.  The Holy Spirit whispered to him; encouraging him to bring all of his heartache and emptiness to God. He surrendered his life to Jesus

and jumped into worship leading at a church in an outdoor tent with just his acoustic guitar. For the next 15 years he continued to lead worship.

 God grew him musically and spiritually in that season by using the skills from the past and developed his ability to lead in a large musical setting

 or in an intimate environment. It was during that time he started writing praise and worship songs to God. Many of those songs are on this album.

 Keith's life is a testimony of the unending patience, grace, and mercy of a loving and faithful God.
