Can dreams come true? Just
ask Jimi Ray, a recent GWC
graduate. The answer you will
most likely receive is "yes"...
and "yes". Jimi's dream of
becoming a big-time Christian
musician is being realized more
and more every day. And, from
that dream stems his latest
album, "Dreams Come True."
"Jimi writes and performs
all original music with topics
such as peer pressure,
relationships, falling in and
out of love, being "real",
dedicated, committed
Christianity, and more." While
at Gardner-Webb, he was known
to have written many songs each
day, whether he was alone in his
room or in one of his Religious
Education classes.
Now is your chance,
Gardner-Webb, to come out and
hear one of Christian music's
hottest rising stars. On Tuesday
night, Jimi Ray will bring his
state-of-the-art sound and light
to the Kathleen Dover Theatre.
Traveling with him will be Rick
Harwell, who adds much to this
ministry with his keyboards and
synthesizers. Together, "they
combine acoustic guitar with
computerized dnms, bass guitar,
and other instruments to form
what they call 'synthesized
rock'."
"I see the need to express
many thoughts to my audience,"
says Ray. "My faith is strong
and my main objective is to
share my faith with my audience.
My songs are about real life,
real situations, and real
people. The lyrics are not
'watered down'— I basically
communicate what I feel."
So be sure not to miss
this exciting S.E.A. concert
November 28th, Admission is free
with your Gardner-Webb I.D.
The exciting, high energy
music ministry of David Teems
will "released" also Tuesday,
November 28th. Teems offers a
variety of music styles that
will surely appeal to you, the
students and faculty. David has
some powerful music and more
importantly, an even more
powerful message to share with
us.
"We need to get to the
point of waking up from as
slumber as Christians," says
Teems. "No more playing games-
- we need to realize just who
the Lord is. Christians who have
it together will want to do
nothing less than evangelize."
That's exactly what David
Teems will be doing when he
comes to GWC. Songs from his
latest album, "Soon to be
Released", are surely to bring
the audience to their feet.
David has a strong rela
tionship with Mylon Lefevre and
Broken Heart Ministries. It was
through one of their concerts
and Mylon's personal testimony,
that Teems gave his heart to the
Lord in the summer of 1981.
Since then, he has even had two
of his songs recorded by
Lefevre.
David Teems will certainly
entertain you and touch your
heart. So take a nice break from
all that studying, and come hear
the original sounds of David
Teems, along with Jimi Ray,
Tuesday, November 28th at 7:30
p.m. in the Dover Theatre.
