Steve Teaches at Babbie Mason’s Artist Retreat

Babbie Mason (right) is my all time favorite song writer.  I met her years ago at Estes Park, Colorado and have recorded four of her songs, “Each One Reach One”; “You Have A Way With Words”; “What Can Separate You”; and “In All Of His Glory”.  Babbie invited me to teach at her artist retreat held at her home in Morrow, Georgia called Inner Circle back on June 7, 2008. It was a blast!  I also met famed Motown recording artist, Vernessa Mitchell (left).  We had a blast as the three of us played pretend American Idol judges during the afternoon of performances by the registrants.  ”I don’t think I look like Simon!”  But we loved bringing encouragement and sharing our journey in ministry with the 100 who attended.

Steve to teach at Babbie Mason’s Inner Circle Retreat.

I met Babbie Mason in 1987 when I competed at the Estes Park Christian Artists’ Talent Competitions. She was one of my judges. A few years later we met a GMA Convention and she gave me a homemade cassette of her song, Each One Reach One, which I recording the following year. A few years past and I invited her to come and teach and perform at my artist retreat in NW Arkansas called, Christian Music Etc. What a pleasure it’s been for me to have recorded several of her songs, including “What Can Separate You?” on my latest CD. Babbie lives here in Atlanta and I am honored to have been invited to be a presenter at her artist retreat called, Inner Circle. The dates are June 6-7, 2008. Pray for me as I share and mentor others in music ministry.

Steve Appears on 100 Huntley Street (video)


This May (2008), Steve had the privilege of being interviewed, as well as singing several songs, for Canada’s daytime talk show ”100 Huntley Street“.

Steve has had the privilege of appearing many times over the past dozen years. It is always a joy to see old friends at Crossroads Television.
100 Huntley Street is the flagship television program of Crossroads Christian Communications Inc. As the first daily Canadian Christian television program, started in 1977, 100 Huntley Street brings the Gospel of Jesus Christ to Canadians in a contemporary format. David Mainse, Founder of Crossroads, first saw the need for people to have a daily diet of the “Good News” over 30 years ago, and since then it has been live and fresh daily.
