The School Of Music in Missions (SOMM) trains musicians in the areas of contemporary Christian music, Christian character, music business and missions. The SOMM should not be the first step into music ministry, but could be the "next" step for those who desire to use their musical gifts in missions.

My heart for this school is to train and mobilize Christian musicians who have a heart for God, compassion for people, a high standard of artistic excellence and seriousness for music ministry. I want to see the development and personal growth of the musician's character and ability, vision and value, skill and creativity improved and thereby giving the musician a platform to express his/her heart to God with their music and also to the nations of the earth.
One of the Words the Lord gave me for this school is "Stewardship". Matthew 25:14 -30 talks about The Parable of the Three Servants... We need to take ownership of what God has giving us as individuals and mostly as musicians, investing our time, strength and energy in what we do at the right place and time. As you invest your gift it leads to multiplication, God wants us to invest our gifts in Him to enable growth, increase and multiplication...
