Music has been a part of Jean Paul's life since he was born. He can remember holding on to the back of the rocking chair as a toddler and pretending it was a mic as he sang his heart out for his mother. Today, Jean Paul is still singing his heart out, only it's for a larger audience than just his mom. Jean Paul is the worship leader at Open Door Baptist Church in Tuscaloosa, AL. He has been serving on staff there since July of 2001. He is married to Elizabeth and has a daughter named Macy.
