The young Indian Christian singer/composer/songwriter Christina Paul smiles as she talks about her life.
"I am so amazed by the perfect plan that God has laid out for my life?.anything more or less would be a step out of His plan. He continues to surprise me as He turns every new page in my book?!"
Born in India to parents who were Christian recording artists, Christina began traveling with them throughout the country singing at a very young age. "I gave my first performance when I was four years old, singing an Indian Christmas song."
Christina's parents continued to nurture her as an artist, which later lead to a series of music ministry tours. Through these she was able to help many Christian organizations raise funds to build churches and other ministries in India. It was then that Christina began to realize her calling. "I knew at a young age that music was in the blueprint that God had designed for my life."
"There have been some pretty solid jumps in terms of life," shares Christina. "Beginning with my arranged marriage and relocating to the U.S; to being a mom for a baby girl and having a full time job as a Computer Programmer. I serve the Lord in our Church, Victorious Life on the praise and worship leadership team; am a small group leader; and am releasing my debut album in English?wow! So many new avenues to walk in! I have matured, grown in the Lord so much and God has taught me how to be completely reliant on Him as He takes me through life's journey of ups and downs."
A new chapter begins with Surrender? 2007 begins a new chapter in Christina's life with the release of Surrender, her U.S. debut album. "I wanted to write about the power of God', says Christina "and about His amazing love and His never-ending grace."
"I always wanted to give the best to Him and do the best for Him and by His grace He made it possible to record the songs that He gave me, in the best studios in Nashville (Big Boy/ Sound Kitchen, Paragon, Dark Horse) where I worked with the incredibly talented crew of the best musicians in town."
Christina shares her mission: "Everyday I walk out the door of my house, I meet so many people who look so lost and empty, and my heart is burdened to tell them about Jesus, because He is the only One that can fill the void in their lives."
We are called to be His disciples, to follow in His footsteps and to take the word of God to every corner of the Earth. Being obedient to that call, I want to use the talent He has given me for a purpose: to encourage other believers and to go beyond the walls of the church and change lives and bring people to Him.
Music has touched my heart throughout my life and I believe that God is paving the way for me to connect with people through this scripture based music. My heart's desire is to help those who are lost to find Jesus and encourage those who already know Him to a closer and deeper walk with the Lord. There are so many people that are lost; people who desperately need to hear about God's grace, His never-ending love for them, and the truth of His word; and I know that God's word does not come back void?it changes lives!"
Christina Paul delivers an inspiring album based on scriptures and personal events that changed her life and shares what it means to live fully surrendered to Christ. This amazing young artist will be a blessing to all. Her incredible vocals, soul-stirring performances and inspiring testimony will touch lives.
