Stephanie's Influences

Listed below are some of the artists, musicians, albums, songs, etc.. that have influenced/impacted my life at various times and in various ways. It’s amazing how certain songs and even entire albums bring back distinct memories of circumstances and seasons. I listen to some of these tunes on a regular basis, and others have simply been a part at one time or another.

I will be updating this page often, as I am always discovering fabulous new tunes/artists.

The authors listed below have impacted my life by encouraging and challenging me to think, to use my God-given reason, to seek, and to dig deep instead of being satisfied with the surface. A good author does that, I think, regardless of the topic, or whether it’s fact or fiction, theology or fantasy. All truths point to The Truth.

Each of these authors have all played a part in doing that.
