Here is what I am doing...And why I need your help!

Joshua W. Turner. Jesus Saved. Husband. Father. Singer/Songwriter. Worship Pastor.

Hi, I am honored to have you here! I am a follower of Jesus, a husband to my beautiful wife Erin and a Daddy to my children Lydian and Isaiah. I spent the first 25 years of my life seeking worth, value and satisfaction from the world. Using music, women, money and often whatever the world had to offer to try and satisfy myself, only to find that it left me feeling empty and alone. In 2014, Jesus stepped in and saved me from my addictions, pain and my own pit of darkness that I had dug. I am now learning to write, record and produce music for Jesus and not myself. It is an honor and as I let go and allow God to use me as a vessel for His plans and glory, I discover more and more the joy of serving him.

I am starting this Patreon account to ask for your help.

My family and I just took a huge leap of faith by moving from Whidbey Island, WA to the town of Gig Harbor, WA to help start a church. We were not at all familiar with the area but felt God call us to pack up our travel trailer and our family of four and help plant a church with the vision of learning to be with Jesus together. I am honored to serve as a Worship Pastor. As the church is starting out, I am on a smaller part-time salary that is at times not enough to support a family of four. It is a faith adventure but I feel that is exactly how God has planned it for us! We get to depend on Him and trust Him that each month He will provide through prayer, praise and the generosity of others. God is good.

I would love to invite you to support our ministry. God is calling me to write honest, vulnerable and original music that will help others experience Jesus and I need your help to be able to do so. Your gift will help allow me to focus both on serving this church plant part-time as well as being able to stay an independent artist and continue to write, record and produce my own original music.

If you feel compelled to support me and my family while I follow God's will for my life, then that would be amazing and such a huge blessing! My hope is that you would feel joy in your heart (2 Corinthians 9:7) as you give to me and my music ministry and if you don't feel that joy as you give, then please save your money for someone you do feel God is calling you to give to. Any donation is greatly appreciated and helpful, although a monthly commitment is preferred as it makes budgeting the most stable for our family.

Thank you and God bless,
Josh
