I’m Shane. A redeemed survivor, composer, and writer who creates from a place of fire, not theory. I was exposed to pornography at 12 by an abusive stepfather who wore a badge and shattered my identity. For years, I wrestled with addiction, trauma, shame, and spiritual confusion. But Jesus Christ met me in the wreckage—not with religion, but with mercy, truth, and a sword.

Today I compose instrumental music and write poetry and theology that reflect deep spiritual warfare, redemption, and the cost of following Christ. My art is raw, prophetic, and soaked in Scripture. I don’t believe in sugarcoated Christianity. I believe in holiness, healing, and truth that sets captives free.

I’m not here to argue doctrine or collect likes—I’m here to speak life, call out the remnant, and reach the lost.

Christ is everything to me. I’m living proof that no pit is too deep for His hand to reach.

Personal Statement of Faith
I believe Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God—fully God, fully man, born of a virgin, crucified under Pilate, buried, risen on the third day, and returning in power.
He is not an idea. He is not a myth. He is not a symbol.
He is King.
He is the only way, the only truth, and the only life. No man comes to the Father but through Him. (John 14:6)

I believe in one God, eternal and triune—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—coequal, coeternal, distinct yet one.
Not modalism. Not confusion. Not compromise.
I believe the Spirit still convicts, delivers, heals, empowers, and speaks—not through psychic trickery or emotional fog, but through the Word and the fire of holiness.

I believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant, infallible Word of God—sharper than any sword, confronting sin, exposing lies, and calling the dead to life. (Hebrews 4:12)
I do not edit it.
I do not bend it.
It breaks me, and I thank God for it.

I believe salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone—no works, no rituals, no flesh.
But I also believe that cheap grace is a lie, and faith without repentance is spiritual fraud.
If Jesus didn’t change you, you’ve never met Him.

I believe hell is real.
I believe demons are real.
I believe judgment is real—and it starts in the house of God. (1 Peter 4:17)
But I also believe mercy still triumphs, because the blood of Christ still speaks a better word than shame. (Hebrews 12:24)

I believe in the Church—but not the one built on marketing, compromise, or comfort.
I believe in the Church that stands in the fire, preaches repentance, lays hands on the sick, casts out devils, and refuses to bow to Babylon.

I believe my testimony is not mine—it’s His.
I was a porn addict, a liar, a coward, a victim, a prisoner—but Jesus wrecked me to rescue me.
Now I write, sing, and create as a weapon, not a product.

I don’t want to be famous.
I want to be faithful.

Let the world reject me.
Let the religious dismiss me.
Let the devil rage.

I belong to Jesus.

Forever.
Occupation
Christian composer, poet, and writer—sharing testimony and prophetic music born from trauma, recovery, and faith in Jesus Christ.
