But when I wrote that column for CCM Magazine, I was amazed at how many parallel paths there were between the journey of a songwriter and the person trying to write the song of their life, and so it wound up becoming a really cool opportunity to write in a devotional-style. It was really during that CCM column that God began to reveal to me that my mom’s encouragement to write books someday was actually something that could become a reality.

I really have to officially thank CCM Magazine for not only shining a light on my music over the years, but for also giving me a platform to write that column. I actually saved every single copy of CCM that year, and I still have them in my possession as a reminder of some of those early literary works.
