Ricardo Equips Artistic Leaders

Ricardo Butler / ReAsOn DiSciPLe•www.podomatic.com

I exist to gather together creative artists that have been either rejected or have moved away from “the existing music system” to equip them to be artistic leaders in the Five Fold for the purpose of bringing the Ark (Praise, Principles, Pattern, People, Power, Provision, and Presence) of God back to the restored Davidical Tabernacle (the Body of Christ) to impact the digital Music, Marketplace, Ministry, and Media Cultures imparting faith, hope, and LOVE using our artistic abilities in the process.
