Ryan
Hi. I'm Ryan, the bassist and mainly the back-up vocals for 3-4-1. I'm apart of this band because since I was a little kid I wanted to worship the Lord through music. My walk with the Lord has been fun but difficult in my life. My love for God is unmatched, but a close second is my love for music. Having an opportunity to play music that glorifys God, was an opportunity of a life time for me. Lately though my walk has been a good one. I have been learning more about him and talking to him more. Since I started this band he started blessing my life with many open doors in the direction I want to be. Playing for the Lord is a major blessing for my life and I am excited each and every time I get to play for him. My goals with this band are: 1) I would like to be able to tell my friends about the Lord, 2) I would like to play for audiences that know of the the Lord but don't personally know him, 3) I would like my walk with God to go to the extreme using my life as a tool. I am also hoping that we 3-4-1 will be a band that you the listener will enjoy as much as I do.

I play the drums for 3-4-1 and am extremely grateful to have such a tremendous opportunity to spread the good news of Gods Grace through music. I came to this band with intentions of having fun and praising God. From the first practice we had as 3-4-1 I have felt Gods presence and blessings in huge proportions. It all felt so right, the words to our lyrics just came and the music followed in perfect order. My walk with Christ began as a child and even though there were years of selfish will on my part, the Lord has kept me to him. I had a rededication of my life to Jesus in May of 97' and was rocketed in to an existence with Him as my personal friend and savior where blessings overflow and peace unlike I had ever known engulfs me. The Lord is my #1 and I pray that you too have this kind of relationship with our Creator!! I hope you will enjoy our music and thank you for visiting our site. May God bless you and keep you to Him!!!

Hello all. I'm the guitarist and sometimes lead singer of the band. I've been playing guitar every since I was in third grade, with no idea why. Then I started a worship band at South Valley Christian Church. This is where I met both Ryan and John. It took God smacking me about the head and shoulders to realize that my time in the worship band had ended after six years of service. Shortly thereafter, John, Ryan and I thought we'd try starting a real band. Little did I know, that God was planning something bigger than any of us were looking for. Now, I'm busier than a one-armed wallpaper hanger with an itch on his shoulder. In addition to the band, I also am a member of the Royal Stuarts Scottish Performance Guild, for which I also play guitar (If you've ever seen me in my kilt, this should explain it). But 3-4-1 is something that I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would be involved with. Just goes to show, God's plans for you can exceed any dream that you might have!
