Doug Shea Doug Shea Lake Jackson Most of the time, in order to move forward with God’s will for your life, you have to surrender all you think you are. It was in that spirit that Doug Shea birthed his latest album, Where Truth Meets Grace. With a pride filled heart, Doug caused a train wreck of pain among every person he came into contact with. I was trying to find my significance in everything but the person who could give it to me. I was suffering from a mental illness and family traumas that plunged me into addictions and deep abysmal places. That mindset, compounded with touring nationally, working with famous industry people and performing with dozens of huge musical acts was a recipe for destruction. Not only for myself, but for those around me. It began in a Pennsylvania hotel room as I looked into the mirror and asked myself the question, “Who are you?” He began to pray, to seek out and listen to the few friends who refused to give up on his soul and faith. Amidst this life change process, the band was on the rise, and Shea met his soon-to-be wife, Monica. That’s when God literally spoke to me. God gave me a five second vision. A choice - Him or the world. I know it sounds crazy, but I knew that if I chose the world, I would have had every success I was working for. But I also knew I would never know God. To this day, I don’t know where it came from, because I had very little faith, if any. But I made a choice in that moment, in a split second, from a deep place in my heart. I chose God.” Everything the vision predicted happened in accordance with Shea’s choice.
