Summary

At 19, I was chasing pop-rock dreams in Dallas, unsure I could ever write a worship song. God whispered: ‘Close those doors and step into ministry at Gateway Church.’ Obedience meant surrendering ambitions—then, overnight, a chorus melody flooded my mind. Leading it that weekend, I watched lives move and learned that saying ‘yes’ is the truest act of worship. Fifteen years on, every next step has been fueled by that same faithful leap. 🎶🙏
