The song 'Baby Baby,' I so love that song because I wrote it about my first daughter.

I write about everything, but I just - how faith filters through all that and colors your opinion of other people and life and all that.

Real relationship is gritty and earthy, the stuff that life is made of.

I know my own weaknesses as a human being, and as a musician, as a singer and as a woman.

Everybody's entitled to think whatever they want and to express that, but my personal day-to-day experience does not come into contact with any of those people.

I was taught a lot of Bible at home and had a voracious appetite for reading the Bible.

To me, the real thrill is in making the music, and then I just trust it to find its own audience, and at times it's big and at times it's small, but that's beyond my control.

The great thing about a song is that no one has to know your story. But if you tell it in a way that has clarity and means something to somebody else, then it can apply to their story.

For me, the backdrop of half the experiences of life includes music.

I feel a part of the congregation. I've never had to do special music. The kids sing in the choir. It's just normal. We're treated like everybody else.
