A first lady of a Church must always remember how important it is to observe and be spiritually aware of all that goes on in your congregation, ultimately not allowing the enemy any place in God’s house. There is so much more that I could speak of, but time doesn’t permit us. However, what I will say is that I don’t want to ever be the first lady who just sits back and looks pretty, like I’m part of the furnishing or décor. I must continually work and help my leader in any/all aspects possible. This is ministry and ministry has always been my heart. If you can talk about your upcoming music project, what can we expect musically and other artists featured? What I can say is there will be songs that I pray and believe will truly touch all who listen and cause them to be delivered and also realize the dreams and goals they have; knowing God is great and well able to keep and bring them through the next phases of life. And, besides my sisters (The Clark Sisters) possibly doing a song with me, no additional features are currently planned. The family record label is a unique concept and business idea. Share the importance of starting a family label. A family record label has always been my dream! I have been signed to a majority of the major labels and I always wanted to have more control over my career and call the shots. Now God has given me this great opportunity. I always wanted to provide a platform for family and talented young people who felt they had nowhere to go. I want to help and assist them with pursuing their dreams too, because there are so many talented artists out there who have not been heard. My husband was the one who pushed and encouraged me to pursue and realize my dreams. And he did everything possible to bring it to fruition.
