Personal.

She burns to see a people awakened to the reality of eternal life, the meaning of existence, and the need for one who overcame death.Nothing gives her more joy than strengthening the body of Christ with hope and courage to persevere through her music, and almost everything she writes is for that purpose.

Kristene wants to give her life to make God understood, seen,and recognized as the creator of all we see. Her songs all have a story behind them, something she overcame, a mountian climbed, a race run, obedience learned , and a hope that turned out to be the greatest truth, HE'S REAL!.

Influences

My musical influences are... #1 Jason Upton, i started writing songs because he demystified the whole idea for me , its really just about the overflow of your heart and what God talks to you about. #2 Misty Edwards, her songs have kept me running and make me want to keep fighting# 3 Rita Springer, When she sings hope and courage fill the room and that is what i want my songs to do .

Other influences are Bob Dylan, Rosie Thomas ,and Joe Miller my old church worship leader who first made me sing and let me tag along with him and his band.
