I love a variety of music... mostly Christian Worship, Contemporary Christian, Choral music, Classical, Musicals, Jazz. My favorite composers are Bach and Mozart. Growing up, I listened to Love Song, Keith Green, 2nd Chapter of Acts, Andre Crouch and Amy Grant. My family had a weekly radio show, and we gave concerts singing the music of Gaither and Dottie Rambo. Currently, I love listening to the meditative praise of Fernando Ortega and "When I Don't Know What to Do" by Tommy Walker. I love The Odes of Solomon, Kari Jobe, Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, Crystal Lewis, Mary, Mary, Kirk Franklin, Israel Houghton...
JOLENE RILEY – Door to Open Hope
Within every individual’s life, there are moments that clearly define one’s inner essence. The same can be found in the life of singer/songwriter, Jolene Riley. Sprinkled throughout her music, life and lyrics, is a desire to serve other women. Jolene Riley has taken on the task of showing other women and mothers that they possess significance no matter who they are, where they’ve been or where they currently find themselves. Jolene Riley, a woman and mother, small in physical stature, casts a shadow of a gentle giant as she reaches out to envelop woman who have found themselves on uneven roads.
Currently residing in South Orange County, CA with her two sons, this single mom revels in the simple fact that she is never alone. Her eyes and heart are set on the strength that she finds through Jesus Christ. As a result, Jolene Riley has a newfound pace in her walk in life. She is on a mission to find those who are in need and then become an advocate standing for them. Her self-formed ministry entitled “door to open hope” is one that Jolene Riley states is close to her heart. Ministering to broken hearts, in broken homes, with hope and joy in her hands, Jolene Riley visits single moms and brings the reality of hope for tomorrow. She assures them they are not alone. There are people who care and who are there for them. Her message delivers a visual and heart-filled awareness of a picture of peace that they were not able to grasp prior to discovering the door of hope in their lives. Surviving some rough journeys in her life, Jolene Riley speaks and sings with compelling sensitivity. Jolene does not call herself a hero, but a person who dispenses the love that she found in her Savior.
Her disciple-like character epitomizes that of a faithful, loving servant exemplified in her music over and over again. "Oh Savior, I am willing to do the work, to give, another road to travel, my hands to help one live…journeyin’ on.” states Jolene in one of the lines of her musical creations, Journeyin On. With influences ranging from the sweet melodies of Amy Grant to the inspiring lyrics of Fernando Ortega, Jolene Riley finds herself in kindred company. With her CD, Journeyin’ On, on shelves nationwide and a new project, “The Open Door” CD being released , Jolene Riley knows that her work has just begun.
Her music and passion carries with it a reflection of the One she has sketched into her very life, her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and she invites you in at the “door to open hope”.

Now in those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, that a census be taken of all the inhabited earth. This was the first census taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. And everyone was on his way to register for the census, each to his own city. Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, in order to register along with Mary, who was engaged to him, and was with child. While they were there, the days were completed for her to give birth. And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
In the same region there were {some} shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. "This {will be} a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased."
Psalms 95:2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
