专辑简介

"WORD!" is an album based on the scriptures of the Christian Bible set to hip-hop, blues and rock n' roll! The hope is that parents will share this music with their children and then enjoy getting into the WORD to read the stories for themselves.

Krista Eyler has been a worship leader at Colonial Presbyterian Church (Kansas City, Missouri) and owner of Funky Mama Music. As "Funky Mama," Krista performs year-round for hundreds of children and families in the Midwest. She has written and composed 3 family-oriented musicals, 6 CDs, and a children's picture book. She has also directed drama and been a vocal coach for area high schoolers. In 2007, Krista (as Funky Mama) was one of only a handful of entertainers nationwide to be selected to perform at the White House Easter Egg Roll in Washington, D.C.

Krista has also co-founded a non-profit, Bible-based performing arts ministry called WordOne Arts based in Kansas City. Before life in music ministry, Krista was an Emmy-nominated, on-air TV news reporter with KMBC-TV Channel 9 News. She chose to leave a news career for a larger mission as a mom. She has taught preschool music at Congregation Beth Shalom (Overland Park, KS), as well as journalism for college students at Johnson County Community College, but found her heart's home leading worship and ministering to children through the arts. Krista earned her Radio-TV-Film degree from Texas Christian University and her Master of Science in Journalism from the University of Kansas.
