Favorite Bible Verse:

1 John 5: 1-5
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well. This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands. This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

Debbie is the mother of Amy and Cory, mother-in-law to Matt Henderson and grandmother to Mason Lee Henderson, born February 18, 2008.

Born and raised in Panama City, FL, Amy is the daughter of Calvin and Debbie Gann. Since she was brought home from the hospital, Amy has been raised around christian music, and was literally a lifelong fan of her dad’s group The Gann Brothers.

“Being raised up in this industry has been such a blessing and privilege for me”, she says. After receiving her bachelors degree in Education from Florida State University, Amy answered the call to a solo ministry. Not long after answering the calling on her life, she was blessed to marry Matt Henderson.
