"Mission Bo" & Missions - do you get it?

Have you been on a missions trip?  Did it change you? Going to Africa in 2007 changed my life forever.  It influenced the writing on this CD for sure.  Two songs based on my Africa experience that you can check out are: You Danced  is about how the Africans greeted us with singing and dancing as I visited their villages.  They taught me about joy in every circumstance. Elijah  is about my haunting encounter with a young man who had lost his mind from his experiences in war. ...

What do ya think of the new CD?

The new CD is done!  Themes on "Worlds Collide" are authenticity, restoration and new life in God.  Heartache, hope and joy experienced in the last couple years inspired the songs, as well as my work in Africa.  I hope the new tunes inspire you!  Check them out on the  SONGS page, and let me know what hits ya.
