   About acoustic diary
acoustic diary... is just that. My mom gave me a guitar in the darkest point of my life. music became my outlet. and now here it is, my audible journal... The reason we (I) are not playing many shows right now is: i am a fulltime High School Youth Pastor at Ventura Missionary Church (VMC). Crazy!!! My Dad is a pastor... something i respect but never wanted to be. i do NOT have it all figured out, never will, but i do know I need Jesus! And if He has made my life worth living again, maybe He can help others too. i believe it. And as we all know High School can be ruthless. That's why i do what i do: i love God and i love these students! ....i hesitate to call myself a Christian (only because of all of the negative conotations it now carries) but i guess you could say i am. i completely believe in Jesus. And that He is the Messiah. i believe God intended to have a relationship with people from the beginning of time. We just get too busy for Him. i really believe i can tell Him everything... whether i'm happy, sad, or pissed off, we just need to communicate somehow.... acoustic diary...

hey do you ever play bass anymore cause if I can't switch my lessons I will need a new bass player and you could make $25 for a half hour lesson of jamming with me and technically the church would pay you too because your working with the youth

A mixture of sound and silence
Music is the essence
Artistic release in time
Entices me nearer to the source.

Come inside of this acoustic guitar
Holds all my thoughts
Spoken through melody and rhythms
Words whispered from the heart.
