Since yesterday, which was Monday, and because I visited a new Church on Sunday, I have been led to write a Christian song, and I want to do it, so it's not a problem. I'm not an artist, but can do it professionally with God's help, though I'll be in a new genre I admit, Christian music. Yeah, I believe I hinted or said my music tastes were mainly secular until now. I recall saying that my Church had a problem with that, while I didn't? ;) But FWIW, I used Dylan and Hendrix & others, performed their stuff to raise money only for Churches and specifically for the Aids Crisis in Africa.
The Christian Radio Station here will play my song, if I can deliver it. Their outreach or scope is tremendous. Our Indie radio station here has played my secular, rock and blues originals so much, with a new twist promoting wholesome family values that the Christian DJ had to quit, over breaking content rules, instead of going with his orders.
This project would be possible, because it turns out that the praise leaders at the new Church (which I may not join) are my friends, and the guy's wife, who is guitarist and singer has been recording since she was 9 year's old. Boy does that strike a chord with me! I have a 9 year old daughter right now. Also, my sister-in-law who is National or Inter-national and not here, is on her 10th CD promotion and is played regularly on our Radio Station. So, I'm in the door, just need to deliver the goods. Is one single enough?
I don't want to be an artist. I just feel I have a message for a listening audience, and if I don't do something besides follow my present course, I'm not going to be useful for God, I think; I see myself withdrawing more and more, though I never peaked or did anything great, tried to lead a normal life, and I'm on the downside of this roller coaster ride.
It will cost me money, instead of making me money. I'm used to that. :( I will have to sell personal guitars and gear. This is not an advertisement, no need to write, I will sell it locally; there's people waiting for the stuff.
I need and ask for your prayers, thank you. I have set a goal for completion in June of '08, if the Lord tarries, and I'm still here?
At the same time, I wish to use recording time for a secular tune that just has to fly, it's for the people of New Orleans; that far away! I want it to be mainstream commercial, and to raise funds. God has already given me a successful Louisiana Band, who would record it, they just don't know about it yet, ha ha! I've had every obstacle in my path and it isn't demo'd yet. I think my hooking up with local Christian musicians will now git 'er done, as we have worked together before without knowing that all of us were full-time Christians. WOW, I'm still getting over the shock. :yikes:
Please pray for whatever's meant to be, not necessarily what I want or envision, though it's good, and will cost me more than I can afford (perhaps I should be giving in some other way?); but I seek God's will and thus his help, if it's right. Thank you.
