a big heartfelt congrats steven... to me this is a story of persistence and hard work but also the fact that God clearly has plans for you. i know we make also make things happen, but it is funny for me to look back and see how even with all my effort god was quietly putting things in order for me in spite of me. how elegantly he arranged all the peices that had to fall in place that day, and what a dose of love and grace you got to experience up close and personal. those moments are so humbling and extraordinary.

i have to say, i just went to your myspace page and your music has left me in tears. i will post your blog and forward your links around, but something tells me you're not really gonna need it.

anyone who wants a delicious treat today go give his tunes a listen. you can also hear "the big moment" on stage (so glad you got a recording of that steven!). i can hear the strain and hard work in your voice that you're talking about, but i think it sounds great. looking forward to picking up a CD!
