Born for the stage, Ronny is at home and makes the audience feel at home when he sings. When Ronny is asked to preach, his soul stirring and life-changing message is earth shaking. He is one of the most sought-after camp meeting ministries of our day. When you hear him, in coliseums, concert halls, high school auditoriums and churches all across the country you’ll know the three things he loves best: the Lord he sings or preaches about, what he’s doing on stage, and you’ll know with certainty he loves you.
