She has a passion to inspire people to actively pursue an intimate relationship with Christ and to live it loud without shame. Her voice and ministry is anointed beyond her years and leaves a lasting impression on those whom she ministers to.
Jmes debut CD “Lay It Down” was released in 2006, and was produced by highly acclaimed artist/producer John Katina of The Katinas, Kene Ghost Bell (Stacie Orrico, Out of Eden, Grits, etc), David Rogers (Baby Bash, Nino Brown, Remnant), and the late Jerome Jefferson.

Fans will not be dissappointed!
She has performed in venues ranging from small intimate settings to military bases, Carnival Cruise lines, Major Convention Centers., numerous church congregations, youth and college groups, high schools, elementary schools, the Las Vegas Strip, and a number of outside special events and major festivals. Although Jme is a newer artist to emerge onto the scene, she was the featured release artist on SOS Christian Radio network (which serves over 12 different states including her hometown of Las Vegas, NV), certain secular stations, and overseas her music can be heard in countries such as Australia, New Zealand and Canada. She has also recently been added to playlists in NY, AL, NC, FL, GA, CA, NY, and MD. The album “Lay It Down” has been a favorite among youth, college age and adults!

Touring is extremely important to Jme because of the personal contact she would not otherwise get among the people she ministers to.
Jme’s heart and vision has much to do with her life experience and desire to encourage, inspire, and edify the body of Christ. Due to the style of her music, she is able to attract a widely diverse audience while crossing cultural and spiritual barriers. She attracts the lost and hurting with her light that is so evident in her lyrics and music.
Her ministry is especially effective for youth, teens, and women. She normally travels with her band for a Full Concert, or travels as arranged by the venue.

Deborah Lovett, Speaker & Author
Deborah Lovett is a speaker for Women’s Events, Retreats, and Conferences. She is also a wife, mother of one daughter, one son, and an author. Her speaking has been noted as “genuine, open, contagious, and like fresh water to the soul.” Her inviting spirit draws women in~ allowing them to experience God’s love in a non-judgmental way. God has called her~ beyond a shadow of a doubt ~to equip women– person-by-person, city-by-city. She desires to educate women on how to ADVANCE to overflowing with an authentic joyful faith that attracts others to Jesus.
She has written several articles for the Alliance Life Magazine, and is the author of Gushing Springs, a Bible Study on the “Woman at the Well”. She has aired on local radio and shared the Gospel in: Ohio, Michigan, Florida, Missouri, Maryland, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Alabama, with further hopes of sharing it around the world!
Born on a sunny, Easter Sunday, Deborah knows that there is indeed no Easter Sunday without a Good Friday. She has endured trials, hardships and sufferings that have allowed her to see the Glory of the Lord, and have imparted an unshakeable faith to her. After her sister took her own life, God gave Deb a heart to see women live out their God-given destiny without fear. After her home burned to the ground, God showed her the importance of spiritual warfare through prayer—or as she puts it, “how to be On Guard!”
(Also the title of her next book.) During her powerful and anointed speaking presentations, Deborah shows and tells of the miracles her family witnessed during that
time of devastation while infusing hope as she reminds everyone, “What the enemy meant for evil, God meant for good!”
She accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as her personal Savior in 1988 when she approached her Pastor Kenneth Mahanes to ask him if he would perform the marriage vows for herself and husband, Tim Lovett. Little did she know she would leave her Pastor’s office as part of the Bride of Christ! Kiddingly she jokes, “It was a double wedding!” Deborah is a Christian.
