We recently moved from Enterprise, Al to the Edwin, Al. area with our spirit filled southern gospel group, “Rhonpaul”. I am a sinner saved by grace at the age of thirteen, who has been a gospel music enthusiast most of my life and a singer of this wonderful spirit filled music. God called me to go into all the world and preach and sing the gospel many years ago. I didn’t want to do that so I fought God’s will for my life. This was not a good decision and the devil lead me to places and deeds that was not pleasing to God. This path lead me into alcoholism, on the road back God allowed me to find AA and now I have been sober for 29 years. Although living, what I called a spiritual life, I was not in God’s will. Well as many of you understand, my life was still in turmoil until I fully surrendered to God’s will. Since that moment God has used me to witness and sing for his glory. The road has lead me to sing with a wonderful group of Christian men called Crimson River, which provided the path to form Rhonpaul, with my wife Rhonda.. Please pray for us and our ministry as we follow God’s path and calling to sing his word and see souls saved for Jesus Christ. Additionally, I am retired from the US Air Force and a career in Government contracting in Information/Communication Security. I have traveled all over the world in my professional career and have seen the wonder and beauty of this world that God created. All of this travel prepared me for this ministry and the travel it requires. My desire and prayer is that I walk in God's will and be a light in the darkness. Please pray for me as we begin this new adventure with Rhonpaul that we will carry the message of God's love and present his plan of salvation through song and message. My wife Rhonda deserves a medal for her hard work and dedication and even her being my #1 critic and partner.
I grew up in a small place called Bertha. We didn't have a post office nor a caution light. I attended high school at George W Long, and went my entire 12 years there. I graduated with honors. I served 12 years of my life in the Coast Guard Reserve. I was involved in a boating accident that ended my career with the reserves. I have been employed by Centurytel for almost 10 years now and really enjoy my job. I have been in some abusive relationships in my past and I feel that was due to my being out of the will of God. I had Him in my heart and prayed to Him often, but was not attending church and was not living the way God intended me to. I know it was through prayer that I am where I am today. I am married to a wonderful man and we have God in our daily lives. I love the Lord and enjoy singing His praises. I pray the Lord continues to bless our ministry and to use us in the furtherence of His Kingdom.
Hebrews 13:5 "Let your conversations be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
Growing up in south central Florida, moving to Alabama was a big change in my life. The Lord brought me to Alabama in 2005, five years after my husband went to be with the Lord. I had no idea what God had in store for my life. As a young teen, I accepted the Lord as my personal Savior, but didn't know what it meant to give your entire life to service until now. I am the youth director for a Baptist Church in Clio, Alabama. Working with youth was the last thing on my mind, but God had other plans. Believe me, there have been times when I cried out, "why?" then, He shows me something wonderful and I say, "Oh Yes, I remember." I believe music is one of God's greatest blessings. I grew up in a Christian family with a father that loves to sing. Paul and Rhonda came into my life a couple of years ago and I started singing with them when possible. I am blessed to have them in my life. God shows me His power and grace everyday. Please pray that everything we do will be for His glory, that our light will shine brightly to lead others to Jesus.
Psalm 40:3 "And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even Praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord."
