Biography

Minister Kathy Horry

Kathy Horry is a mailwoman, a mouthpiece, and an ambassador for Christ. The gift of music God has given her is not for herself, but for others. God told her she was created to praise Him, moreover, she was to cause others to praise Him.  The manifestation of these instructions have been true since the very day she surrendered her life to Him.

Kathy was born in Battle Creek, Michigan, to a legacy of music. Her mother came from a musical family and she was raised from childhood singing and playing the piano at family gatherings, church gatherings, and school events. She recorded her first gospel solo at the age of nine, and went on to record her first secular single at the age of 14. This single received a substantial amount of local air play, leading her family and friends to believe her success as a musician was guaranteed. However, it was not until a promoter with Polygram Records heard her sing (when she was 16) that she experienced her first real break into professional music. At the age of eighteen, she moved to Atlanta, Georgia, to pursue her dream of secular music, leaving gospel behind.

Kathy achieved success as a secular artist, recording two rhythm and blues albums, with accompanying music videos and plenty of airplay, and her singles were climbing the Billboard Top 20 charts. Her return to gospel was precipitated by the death of her father and the realization that she needed to accept Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior to be the rock she needed to stabilize her life. She determined to follow the Lord, and in so doing, turned her back on a lucrative record deal that promised to fulfill all her dreams of success and stardom. Once she made up her mind to follow the Lord, the taste for secular music was burned from her mouth forever. She lives now to sing God’s praises for the rest of her life.
