Lynne Clarke: A Contemporary Christian Singer/Songwriter with a Gift for Verse and Melody

Say "Hello!" to Lynne, a devout Christian who has seen what Jesus can do in the life of a believer. At the age of six, Lynne’s parents left everything behind and immigrated to the USA. They literally sacrificed all in this move to bring the family of seven from Venezuela to the USA.

As the youngest of five, Lynne took stock of how her mother was able to go from being an elementary school teacher, to working as a maid in the US, raise five children while at the same time attend college to finally receive a degree as a top grade registered nurse. Lynne’s mom proved to be a powerful model of faith and perseverance and the wonderful things that one can do when one opens his or her heart to Jesus.

Lynne Clarke is a Contemporary Christian Singer/Songwriter with a gift for verse and melody. She prefers to tell stories through her lyrics that show both practical examples of faith in action and convey the message of the gospel. Though songwriting came later, music has always played a major role in her life. Lynne began singing in the fourth grade in her elementary school glee club. As an adult she sang in the church choir.

Initially performing for friends and family, Lynne began writing Christian music as an outlet during a difficult period in her life. This led to her later playing at church and larger community events. Now with a faithful following of supporters, Lynne believes that the Lord is calling her to share her music with the whole world.

Linda G. Martinez: A Christian Latin Nightingale Sings to the Abused about God's Love

Born and raised in New York City, Linda started her studies in music at an early age following the encouragement of her father who recently passed away. With a great love for music himself, he always encouraged Linda to love it, respect it, and make it part of her life.

At age 11 Linda moved with her parents to Puerto Rico where she studied voice and popular singing at The Puerto Rico Conservatory of Music and became more active in Christian music. With 4 Christian CDs recorded in Spanish, Linda continued her studies in music with a vocal coach and personal friend. It was in 1992 that Linda, by the glory of God, won the Christian festival Festival Lira of Puerto Rico with the song Mi Deseo de Alabarte (My Desire to Worship You). It was after winning the Christian Festival that Linda recorded her first CD.

With a BA in Communications, Linda counts music as her real passion. "Music is my life! It's what I breath. I thank God for giving me this talent. Music is what my soul loves.Music is my passion and my calling from God."

As a child abuse survivor, Linda likes to tell her testimony or story at her concerts and share with her audiences what she has experienced because she knows how abused people feel. Having been there, Linda knows they feel hurt, pain, sorrow, sadness, and bitterness with a lack of self-esteem. They tend to see others as much better than themselves because they feel so lonely and always hurting deep inside. Linda knows how all this feels because she's been there.

A sensitive soul who is passionate about God and music, Linda feels that music can say so many things with a song. When she listens to a beautiful voice or a well played instrument, she feels like angels were playing the instruments or singing with such beauty and peace. "Music is a lovely blessing that God gave us."

Linda likes to sing with her Christian band in prisons, shelters, juvenille detention centers, streets, Christian concerts, or whereever there is a need of hope, love, and salvation.

Say "Hello!" to HGM Featured Artist: Mrs. Tenisha Alexander

HGM Featured Artist: Mrs. Tenisha Alexander

Born in East St. Louis, Illinois, Tenisha Alexander began singing publicly at the age of 12. With a love for poetry and music, Mrs. Alexander wrote poems continuously and played the piano, French horn, and acoustic guitar in the band and church.

Coming from a family of 16, Tenisha's father didn’t know the extent of her singing talent until she participated in a talent show. After hearing Tenisha sing, tears came to his eyes. Since then, he has encouraged Tenisha to pursue singing, saying that she was gifted to sing and the sky is the limit.

Currently working in accounting, Tenisha is married to the wonderful Minister Jason Alexander who was the second person to encourage her to pursue a singing career.

According to Tenisha, "Jason is 25 but his wisdom is beyond his years. God has used him to help prepare me for my journey as an artist. I realized, I’m not an ordinary singer. I’m a worshipper and praiser, who has been called and chosen to lift my voice while ministering to all. I accepted my calling to the music ministry and willingly go forth to uplift, encourage and tell somebody about God."

Suzanne SnoSavenski, Christian Author of Suspense Novels, Finds Her Calling

A Christian author of suspense novels, Suzanne SnoSavenski was born in Carmel, California, the oldest of four children.

During the early part of her marriage, Suzanne received a typewriter from her husband. With a strong desire to type, Suzanne searched for topics to type about. An idea that came to her was one that she feels was the Lord’s way of telling her to put her feelings and experiences as an abused victim into a book.

Suzanne only got to five chapters when her youngest son accidentally trashed it. Putting it aside as a lost, Suzanne gave up on it until her husband found it in 2004. Suzanne’s decision to finish it was put on hold because she felt that she “had a lot of spiritual growing to do.”

Having increasingly grown into a Godly woman who wants nothing more than to lead people to God, Suzanne has finished three books. Feeling that sometimes she doesn't have the right words to minister to people, Suzanne hopes her books will speak for her.

Her second book, Raging Fire, is now available as an ebook.

Mary E. Pierce: Worshipping the Lord via Sign Language and Music!

Through her Joyride Ministries, Mary combines American Sign Language and anointed worship music in an interpretive presentation that leads people into the presence and joy of the Lord. The excitement of knowing the God who loves us is communicated powerfully by using sign language to "sing" and offer praise to God.

Our relationship with God truly is a "joyride" when we discover His passionate love for us and return that love back to Him through worship.

When Mary decided to take a refresher course in sign, she found that she knew more sign language than she thought. Mary returned to signing to music again. What joy she experienced when she worshipped the Lord! Mary found that God had given her a gift, a talent, a passion, an anointing.

May our heaveanly Father give you a very Joyous ride through this life!

Ila Blount: A Lady with a Vison for Ladies

Ila's vision is to encourage and inspire women to love God with all their mind, body, and soul.

At the tender age of 13, Ila gave her life to God. One can say that middle school was Ila’s training ground to spread the news about waiting for God’s Best.

It was one day during recess that Ila broke out with a song and dance to songs like “You Don’t Have To Take Your Clothes off to Have a Good Time”. This was her way of encouraging her classmates to remain celibate until their wedding day.

Today, the author of a book entitled, The Milk Aint 4 Free, Ila hopes that her witty and insightful book will encourage women to wait for God‘s Best.

Throughout the years, God's grace has been upon Ila's life.

Mark Henry: The Jazz Writer and His Sons Work Together and Play Together

Mark Henry, known as The Jazz Writer, was born in Los Angeles, California. With his love of music beginning in his early childhood, Mark could be found listening to legends like Hugh Masekela, James Brown, Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, and The Supremes.

Drawn by the emotional instrumentation and harmonies, he soon learned to play the guitar at the tender age of 8, bought a bass at age 11, and shortly thereafter became the bass player in his uncle's band. Having studied bass in high school during his impassioned teenage years, Mark was captivated by the great jazz innovators of the seventies who invented a new genre of music. Geniuses like Grover Washington Jr., Bob James, Ronnie Laws, Herbie Hancock, Dexter Wenzel, Donald Byrd, Patrice Rushen, Bobbi Humphrey, the Jazz Crusaders, and a list far too long to complete here were combining tight rhythms, emotional chord progressions, memorable melodies, and inspired solos to form what would become Smooth Jazz.

Music became Mark's first love. He studied flute, piano, music theory, recording arts technology, and radio before he began creating his own innovations of jazz. Eventually purchasing his own studio equipment, Mark took up Pro Audio recording, mixing and editing local bands and independent artists, recording shows, pads, PSA's and liners for Adele Fortier's legendary Gospel Connection radio show, and editing for the IT Conversations Network. All the while his skills as a jazz writer continued to develop, becoming evermore chill.

His two sons, Mark and Shawn, also embrace a love of music, first as trumpet players in their middle and high school bands, then as talented songwriters, producers, and recording engineers. Working together, this family organization has developed a powerful smooth jazz production entity, always uniquely outside the boundaries of genre to make great jazz while embracing the widest audience through crossover appeal.

Let me introduce you to Christine Cruz who lives on Long Island, New York. A busy person and wearer of many hats, Christine is a Business Analyst for the IT industry, a Christian musician with her husband, a web and print designer, and the owner of an online store of Christian wear.

Christine started her online store to sell Christian clothes (t-shirts, sweatshirts, and baby clothes) after running into stumbling block online searching for Christian shirts for her husband and herself. They were so hard to find. She always hit a dead end but never gave up.

Instead throwing the towel, Christine decided to open her own store where she and her husband can have easy access to Christian t-shirts they can wear in their shows and in public. It was their great way to get the message out and get people interested in God's Word.
