Shirline 's Story
Life
For most of you who knew me, I was known as Arnie or Arnold. To some girls I was known as "Hair Spray", at Jane Adams Jr. High...lol! I played Mother Abbess in "The Sound of Music", at Jane Adams and was known as the one to either pick on or beat up because kids were cruel then. lol Thank God everyone has grown up and have kids of their own...God is very forgiving! I am also Jeanine Arnold's sister. Jeanine graduated in 78 from Schaumburg High School.
For those of you who are trying to remember my face or who I am: I was in German Club, Girls Chorus, Choir, Tennis and Modern dance, in High School. I also was dating Edward Brax from Schaumburg High and we married, had a beautiful daughter and then divorced. My ex and his wife are good friends with my husband Reverend Dr. Franz and I. As a matter of fact my husband, the Reverend, married my ex and his wife. Interesting huh? God knows our futures. God is good that way you know!
Our daughter, Christina (18 years old and living at home with Reverend Dr. and I) has been an honor roll student all of her life and has a great gift/passions for singing like her mother.
My passion for singing has led me deeper into the ministry. I have performed/ministered in the gift of singing in the West Coast all the way to the central Northwest. I had the honor of singing with famous Violinist Franz Bentler and perf...Expand for more
ormed at many weddings and funerals. I also play the piano and guitar. I also had the honor of performing with my motherand sister in the Martin Tennessee's 100th centenial at the University of Tennessee at Martin, in Martin Tennesees's football stadium. My mother made a record with Johny Cash's first cousin Gene Cash in Nashville Tennessee and we traveled to 250 radio stations across the US to push her songs.
I am happily married to a wonderful man and minister who was a Staff Sargent in the US AirForce. He as well has been gifted in music by way of trumpet. He graduated from TCU and Southwestern Universities and was a leading Traffic manager of a major Steel Corporation in Chicago and built a repore with many important people such at the Merceds Benz family,men in government and the medical community. He has a Doctor's degree in Divinity and is highly respected and sought by the community, government and church community. He has even ministered to men on death row in Texas. I am very proud of him!
God has given me this gift of a wonderful, loving life in Christ. I do not mince for words and I take every opportunity to share Christ with old and new friends and tell them that God loves them.
If I could do my life all over again I wouldn't change a thing. I firmly believe that every bump in the road we meet is a stepping stone for greatness!
God bless!
