My brief tenure of ministry as a pastor in my life produced some wonderful experiences. How can I forget the First Assembly of God church in Plainview, Texas? It was there that I finally learned the difference between what a "positive thinker," and a "negative thinker," really was. I also had the pleasure of finally getting into all of the Robert Schuller and Norman Vincent Peale books and seeing my mental capacity expand about a 1000 miles in all directions. This wasn't so much something that I wanted, because I had actually never even heard about such things. It was something that I found through the help of a wonderful positive man in Plainview by the name of Rex Davey. He stopped me one day and asked me rather pointedly, "What kind of thinker are you?" I really didn't know how to answer him. That question led to a lifelong search for the "truth," as I know it today. And, if someone asks me that question now, I immediately reply, "I'm a positive thinker!" Positive thinking changed my life for the better inside and out!

My wife, Sharon Marie Farmer and I had accepted this church with 13 members on the roll, agreed to sleep in the Sunday School rooms in the back of the church, because they were having all sorts of financial problems and attendance was down at the time we ministered there. It was while praying in those Sunday School rooms, living in the back of the church, that my mind was opened to the "faith message" and a new way of thinking in a positive way instead of a negative way. I joined with the other members in a vision for the church's future. One of the most profound things that was ever said to me was by one of the elders in the church, Brother A. O. Johnson. He said, "Where we have one way, God has a 1000 ways of meeting our needs." Our vision to build a new parsonage for the minister, a new church for the congregation, and a new vision for the community took a long time to come to fruition. I had a very small part to play on this larger stage of life.

Today, some 33+ years later, the church stands on the interstate, perhaps not in the exact form that I envisioned, but it's there along with a beautiful home for the pastor. Thank God he doesn't have to sleep on the couch in the evangelist's quarters today. Above is the picture of the vision that I had for the church. Thank you Plainview, Texas for the positive influence that you had on my life and especially on my songwriting. I wrote some of the greatest Gospel songs of my career while I was in Plainview, Texas. Some of the lifelong friends and fellowships that we established during this period of our lives exist today. One of my dearest friends, Jimmy Davis and his wife Mary Hembree-Davis, are still connected through their family here in Nashville. It was a short time of victory, and a lot of maturing that took place, but I look back on that time with the hope that our family left a positive influence on the church, the community and the people that we were associated with. If you would like to contact me here in Nashville, please feel free to send me an e-mail anytime.

I have tried to show the success of ministry years and not the failures. If there were any successes, they were the result of a lot of people's prayers. I moved to Nashville permanently to pursue ministry and music. I had been involved with music from the time I was a small child. For more about the progression of my music and my songwriting, please continue at this site and you'll get a better feel for my involvement in both the Gospel music field and the secular music that followed.

Positive Thinking Changed My Life!

Hendersonville First Assembly
Hendersonville, Tennessee

The music inside of me drove me to Nashville. I loved music so much that I couldn't rest at night for the desire to produce, play and be a part of the music industry. When the opportunity came to relocate to Nashville, I took it immediately. I have always loved the City of Nashville and it's wonderful people. While I have been in this city, I have had the privilege to meet and work with some of the most exciting people in the world. The move from my Texas roots was worth it. I have never regretted the move to Music City USA!

It was while I was working in Nashville that I had the opportunity to meet so many of the stars of both the religious, political,and music world. I'm glad that their lives touched mine. I'm almost 50 years old now, and wouldn't change a thing about my life. It's been a life full of adventure, excitement, and creativity. And, I've enjoyed every minute of the music business. So often, people ask me, "How are you doing?" I always tell them "I have no complaints." And, I don't. God has been exceptionally good to me through these many years. I have never stopped thanking the Lord for each and every day that He gives me to continue to participate in the things that I love so dearly.
