About Trish
Mission Statement
To share, encourage, and motivate people to find
hope in Jesus Christ through testimony and song.
Biography
Now in her 19th year as a
professional singer, songwriter and musician, Trish Torline is more excited
and fulfilled than ever before and is now in pursuit of a career in music
ministry.
After years of writing, performing and
recording country music, Trish has, in the past 7 years, turned her
attention to Christian music. The result has been a collection of touching
original songs that celebrate the love and grace of God, a children’s
Christmas book, and now, a collection of her favorite hymns.
Her original music is a testimony of her
journey, capturing in music, a vivid description of how God has worked in
her life. She enjoys sharing her experiences with churches, ladies groups,
youth events, camps, festivals, and coffee houses across the country.
When she isn’t captivating audiences with
her music, Trish is captivating young people as a middle school band
director, a ministry in itself.
Trish currently resides in Winchester, Kentucky with her two poodles
Sassy and Rusty.
Testimonial
I have spent much of my life searching for
my significance. I have tried, through the years, to figure out who I am and
have stumbled, falling into many of the traps that exist along the path of a
seeking Christian.
Finally, I realized that my accomplishments
and my failures do not determine my significance or my identity. I am a
Child of God. That is who I am, and who I was created to be. I find only a
temporary peace through what I may achieve. My true, lasting peace is found
through discovering God’s Creation in me.
The music I write expresses the joy of being
a child of God, and also the difficulty of being human. For in humanity
there exists many struggles. But God has shown me, often through the songs
he allows me to write, that He is able to overcome all of these.
Each time I write, I feel I am coming to
grips with a struggle I have, or a joy I am celebrating. Either way, there
is truth to tell. In the process of sharing these songs, I embrace the
possibility that someone, somewhere may receive these words and be able to
claim some of them as their own.
The Lord has given me an incredible gift of
writing and playing music. I have chosen to use these gifts to give hope and
encouragement. On the day, when I see His Face, I want to be able to tell
Him that I have used His gifts and shared them with others.
~ Trish Torline
Statement of Faith
I believe the Holy Bible to be the inspired
word of God. I believe that by my sinful nature, I cannot have communion
with God, but because Jesus Christ died and took my place on the cross, I
have been given that opportunity.
I believe that it is my calling to share
what God has placed on my heart, with as many people as I can. The fact that
I am a musician is not central to this … it is just a means of sharing my
faith.
