EDENintheDESERT

It all began with a desire to have a consortium of creative souls with spiritual multi-media callings congregate in a common place called EDENintheDESERT and collaborate with their gifts there to bring peace, understanding, love and joy to a world in need of inspiration and guidance.

"Therefore I am now going to allure them; I will lead them into the desert and speak tenderly to them." Hosea 2:14



If you have an important message to convey to someone, what is the best means of getting the message through? Have you ever tried to talk with someone who was so busy you could not get him to hear you? Distractions prevent us from giving our undivided attention to the messenger. So too, God has His way of taking us aside to get our undivided attention. For Moses, it was 40 years in the desert; for Joseph, it was 13 years in Egypt; for David, it was many years of fleeing from King Saul.

God knows the stubborn human heart. He knows that if He is to accomplish His deepest work, He must take us into the desert in order to give us the privilege to be used in His Kingdom. In the desert God changes us and removes things that hinder us. He forces us to draw deep upon His grace. The desert is only a season in our life. When He has accomplished what He wants in our lives in the desert, He will bring us out. He has given us a mission to fulfill that can only be fulfilled after we have spent adequate time in preparation in the desert. Fear not the desert, for it is here you will hear God's voice like never before. It is here you become His bride. It is here you will have the idols of your life removed. It is here you begin to experience the reality of a living God like never before. Someone once said, "God uses enlarged trials to produce enlarged saints so He can put them in enlarged places!"



"He brought me out into a spacious place; He rescued me because He delighted in me." 2 Samuel 22:20



This site is an overview of my journey into the desert to hear GOD above my own desires, above the well-intentioned advice of those that felt they knew me better than I knew myself, the writings that resulted from this exploration and the music I made along the way.
My journey continues to fully establish EDENintheDESERT, but most importantly, to discover exactly who GOD is for these times we live in and I share this journey, my TESTIMONY , VISION and REVELATION willingly, if for no other reason, to not be alone. If you so choose to share your thoughts, you'll find I'm a good listener.
Thank you for leaving your comments in the CONNECT section or on any of the other social networking sites you'll find there. In the meantime, take a moment to peruse the BOOKS section. There you'll discover my latest revelations and writings and a couple of my earliest musical recordings. How beautiful it would be to have your support.
At this point, you're most likely listening to the music player, below, on your laptop or computer to a selection of songs that chronicle my journey into the marvelous LIGHT. These songs are available in my online STORE, or through all the major music sites, for digital download.
If you would just like to directly SUPPORT my efforts in the desert, you can access Paypal on that page. Thank you in advance for whatever your heart leads you to do.
Finally, a few images from my journey are uploaded in the GALLERY section.

Thank you for visiting with me...
