Hi everyone,

My name is Shane, and I’m grateful to be here.

I’m a husband, a father, a poet, and a musician, but more than that, I’m a man who has been redeemed by grace. My journey to Christ wasn’t clean or simple. I grew up in a home filled with brokenness, addiction, and trauma. My stepfather was a respected authority figure in public, but behind closed doors, he was abusive and introduced things into my life—like pornography—that left deep scars and shaped decades of internal battles.

For years, I felt like I was carrying darkness I couldn’t shake. But even in those depths, God never let go of me. Slowly, through pain, surrender, and truth, I found my way back to Christ—and I haven’t been the same since.

I now create original Christian music and poetry, not in the traditional sense, but with deep emotional and spiritual themes that reflect struggle, healing, and worship. My style blends elements of orchestral, rock, and cinematic sounds with raw lyrics that come from a place of honesty and restoration. I don't use social media, so I’m here to connect, encourage, and share my work in a space where faith matters more than popularity.

I’d love to meet others who’ve walked through hard seasons and still believe in God’s power to restore and transform.

Thanks for letting me be part of this community. I’m looking forward to meaningful conversations and friendships here.

Blessings,
Shane
