Testimony - I gave my  life to Christ when I was 16 years old. Not always walking in HIS way, but through God's grace and mercy, I am at a place in my life that reminds me every day that Jesus is here and lives with me. There are many days that will provide challenges in this life, but it is promised that God will never leave me. I met Tim about 5 years ago, we asked God to let us reach out through music to let people know there is a better way, and I pray our offering has been acceptable.

Special thanks to my wife, Trina, for her support over the years with our ministry. She has been a blessing for not only me, but all the guys in the band.

Testimony - I moved here from Yakima Washington about 7 years ago to be close to my family (who had moved here 2 years prior).  I was a good boy and lived a good Christian life until High School, where I began to get involved in many things of evil and was on my way down the Road of Destruction.  After High school, I continued my wicked ways until I really had nothing to my name and no goals in life whatsoever.  I had almost hit rock bottom, when I made the best decision of my life, which was to move to the South, be reunited with my family and get a fresh start in life.  As I rededicated my life to Christ, he began to build me up again and shape me the way I should have been all along.  The grace and mercy of Jesus continues to amaze me.  Its an absolute miracle that I didn't end up dead, or maimed, or in prison.  Not long after I moved here,  I made new friends, got a great job, started working out, playing on softball and basketball teams and playing lead guitar for our church worship team on twice a week.  I met our singer, David through a mutual friend and we started this band in 2003.  Since then, I have gone back and taken professional guitar lessons and concentrated on making music for the One we sing about.  I am so excited for the future of 39 Lashes!!  It looks very promising and we have big dreams for the band.  We want to be a medium for the Lord to the hearts of people and at the same time making fast, fun heavy metal songs that we enjoy sop much.  So here we are....what comes next??  I cant wait to find out!

Testimony - First, I have a very diligent faith in Christ Jesus. I knew from when I was a kid there is someone out there, and could not put my finger on it. I knew in my mind that I am led to be who I am today by hearing God's voice to call me His.  I have something that no one can take away from me, and I have a peace of mind. I am spending my life seeking everyone that will to listen to our ministry. No one will be left behind. We depend on our faith to carry us home.

        My family is important to me. I have always set the example. I was the oldest of four, and I led each of brothers and sister to do their best with what we have. We have each other. My family, now with my wife, Jodi and sons, is the best that God has given me. I give my life to take care of them. My brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus, I have devoted my every notion to be a helping hand, to comfort one another, to strive for our unity, and to show others how to be set free from their sickness in sin, so we can all go home one day on the other side.

Testimony - By day, I'm an actuary... total nerd... but once work is over, I become the drumming force behind 39 Lashes.  As the newest member, I am so excited to be a part of such a rockin band.  My first allegiance is to my Savior Jesus, and it is so amazing that I can spread His Word by pounding away behind a drumkit with Dave, Tim and Tony. To my beautiful wife....I Love You!
