: About Me

Hi, I'm Steve Hare.I live in Grandview, Mo with my wife of 22 great years,Mary, my daughter, Rebekah (21), our son Joshua(19), and our most entertaining and very spoiled cat, "Tess". We also have two older sons, Joe and Michael, who still live in the vicinity, but are no longer at home.
A contemporary psalmist,music minister and poet, I have been playing acoustic guitar for about 25 years, leading worship and sharing the Lord with guys in jail for about 10 years. I also play in local coffee houses.

More recently, I began writing and reciting poetry, and started leading poetry discussion groups for teens and adults in public libraries here in the Kansas City area.

I have managed the Turf Maintenance Division for a lawn and landscaping co. for the past ten years, and this will be my last season, December being my last month. Don't know where the funding will be coming from, but I am trusting that through whatever source, the Lord will provide for us.(aside from the Lord), but I am pursuing full-time prison ministry even as I write this.

My passion is ...

Sharing the Lord in word, poetry and song.

I know too much about ...

Living paycheck to paycheck

My parents always told me ...

Too much about nothing of any consequence

My childhood ambition ...

To grow up

My favorite memory ...

The day the Lord spoke to me and my marriage day

Why I write ...

To make Him known

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

reading: Apostolic Foundations, watching:as little tv as possible, listening to: my heart and the Holy Spirit

My first job ...

Stocking shelves in a Dairy Mart in Connecticut

My best moment ...

When I was born again

My inspiration ...

The Holy Spirit

What I mean is, if you do not believe that the bible is in fact the Word of the living God, then it is only another man-made document that may or may not be of some historic or social value dependant entirely on the opinion or perspective of the reader, and certainly open to anyone's...
