Michael S. Gibson
I don't ever remember a time in my life
when I was not totally surrounded by music. Many people have commented
that
everyone in my family plays an instrument, or sings, and for the most
part, that is true.
When I stop and think about those who have challenged me to become the
man I am
today, I first think of my father, Ike Gibson. He bought me my first
guitar,
and instilled in me the importance of serving the LORD, and giving Him
the best
of my talents and abilities. The second person that had such an impact
on my
life is Henry Bunch. Henry deepened my love for music, Martin Guitars,
and good
ole' fashion harmony. Thirdly, my Pastor, and uncle, Seven Gibson
taught
me many lessons about being a faithful servant, and the importance of
our
local church. Special thank you to my wife, Deborah, for loving me, and
supporting
me all these years. To my three children, Caleb, Keaton, and Katey, you
guys are the love of my life. A Special thanks to Greta and Terry. I
love both
you guys so much and thank you for working so hard to make this dream
of
serving the LORD through music, a reality. |

Chandra Greene
My name is Chandra Greene. I am 23 years old. I was
born in Ohio and moved to Tennessee when I was 9 years old. I was saved
when I was 4 years old. Some may say that is too young, But I have
never doubted what God did for me that day. I am married to a wonderful
man named Matthew, Who has stood by me through the best and worst times
in my life. We have a daughter, Baileigh, who is 11 months old, and she
is the love of our lives. Never in my lifetime would I have dreamed
that God would bless a worthless sinner like me with such a wonderful
family. Although our family has faced many difficult times, I've always
known God had a special plan for my life. I am so thankful that God has
blessed me with this opportunity to sing and use my musical talents to
worship Him. I have been so blessed by the Gibsons and have always
enjoyed their music and now I am looking forward to being a part of
such a wonderful ministry. Thank you Mike and Terry for treating me
like family.

Terry Collins
It is so amazing, from an early age,
how God can prepare someone for service in his kingdom. Growing up in
Maryland, I was no different
than any other young boy. I didn't know about God, and I didn't care.
But, I was
learning to sing, and play the guitar, and other instruments, listening
to
Bluegrass and Country music. I continually increased my knowledge of
music, rythyms, and
chords. Basically, just enjoying music. Later in life, thinking I had
been
saved, I spent thirteen years in that state. I even tried to preach,
thinking that was what
God wanted me to do. Feeling the burden that something was missing in
my Christian
faith, I began to do some soul searching. I finally realized that I was
missing
the most important ingredient (God). He drew me to an altar of prayer,
and I was
born again! What a difference a day makes! I am so glad that God loved
me so
much, that he showed me where I was, and he brought me to where He is.
Thank you
LORD for saving my soul, and my life! Truly, my hearts desire, is that
God
will use my ministry of music to touch someone in need. I just want to
be an
instrument in the potter's hand. |
