Possessing one of the most goose-pimple-inducing voices ever committed to digital, JULIE MILLER has made big waves since her debut solo album 'Meet Julie Miller'. Jan Willem Vink met the singer.

Will you work with her again?

"Yeah. If I ever make records I want her there. Her and her dog."

You have a song "Dangerous Place" about abortion on your album. Why?

"Well, before I met the Lord, I found myself pregnant. I was living with my boyfriend and I went to the plant parenthood free clinic, got a positive test. And they said 'OK you're pregnant, when do you want your abortion? We'll pay for it!' I was so blinded. It never even occurred to me it was wrong, that this was a person, because everyone else did it. I didn't even think for myself any more. And so I had an abortion. And I came out and they gave me punch and cookies and I felt sorry for myself and never thought about the baby at all. A few months later I was watching a documentary about the stages of an unborn child. I saw six weeks. It had little fingers and facial features. I looked and thought, 'Wait a minute, that's not just tissue, that's a person... a person!' I blocked it out of my mind. Then after I came to know the Lord I read a tract by Melody Green, 'Children: Things we throw away.' That song, "Dangerous Place", poured right out. It's a real hard song for me to sing. But I've been singing it a lot lately. But it's something the Lord has laid on my heart and because it's such a big thing; millions and millions and millions of children. So I sort of think about my little baby when I sing it. I sing it on his behalf and on behalf of others. And hopefully some other little child might be saved."

What are the things you want to communicate during a concert?

"It depends on who the audience is, somewhat. But, mostly, I just want people to know how much God longs for them so they'll be drawn to Him. And if there are Christians in the audience feeling like a failure, or really hopeless, or really going through hard times, I want them to know that the Lord is with them and He works through them and He'll bring them through. Those are the things that I usually have on my heart."
