Nick believes very strongly that one person can make a difference in the
world, and that we should each strive to be the difference that this world
needs. Everyone should know that they have a vision and a mission in
life, that they were put here for a purpose, and to find their cause and
embrace their destiny. Christians have long been known for hypocrisy,
religiosity, exclusivity, intolerance, persecution, and a host of other
distortions of what we are supposed to be. This needs to stop now. We
need to be the kind of Christians that make those around us happy, loved,
and cared for; the kind of Christians that understand that God is not an
angry God, but He is first and foremost LOVE. We, as His children need
to reflect that love to the rest of the world. Never should a Christian
judge those around them and beat them over the head with doctrine and
their need for lifestyle change. This sort of evangelism will not work
anymore (not that it ever did). We must befriend the lost, be an example
of joy, peace, love, and gentleness and all those spiritual fruity things. We
must be the salt of the earth and add flavor to it, make life fun, life
passionately and with reckless abandon. This is our call and our mission!
This is spreading the gospel of the Kingdom! And this is the philosophy
behind the "Change Your World" Project.


Nick has been in and around music all his life. He was only 3 years old
when he sang on his first album for Chapel records. He spent many of
his formative years travelling the country with his father's band going
from church to church. Nick started playing guitar at age 12, and a few
years later immersed himself into the wonderful world of Irish music. He
played Irish Flutes and whistles and percussion with an Irish band called
Kith and Kin in the late 90's. In 2001 he gave his life to God and
dedicated his musical talents to His service. Since that time he has led
worship in countless churches and around the world as well as played
with various bands. He has a degree in Theology from Pacific Union
College. In August of 2003 he married his beautiful wife Melissa and they
are now expecting their first daughter to come in September of this year!


Nick Currently works as a worship Pastor for two churches (yes it is
possible... one meets on Saturday and the other one meets on Sunday).
He is passionate about serving the family of God by leading them into
God's presence through music.
