Kathy Troccoli is celebrating 28 years of music and ministry in 2010! With numerous accolades and record sales reaching two million, Kathy has enjoyed 19 recordings, 17 number-one radio hits, 19 Dove Award nominations, 2 Dove Awards, and 3 Grammy nominations. Her last four recordings are self-produced including her newest release Hope’s Alive and her beloved worship CD, Draw Me Close.

Kathy is an award-winning singer, songwriter, speaker and author of numerous books including the bestselling Falling in Love with Jesus bible study series co-authored with Dee Brestin, Spaghetti for the Soul co-authored with Ellie Lofaro, Am I Not Still God? and Live Like You Mean It. A highly sought-after conference speaker and singer, Kathy has ministered to millions of women through various national conferences and was selected as one of the “Most Influential Christian Women in America” by Today’s Christian Woman magazine readers.

Partnering with JRI Cruises for 15 years, Kathy has been pleased to host the highly acclaimed annual KT and Friends Cruise. She is the longest running female host of any Christian cruise in America. Kathy and JRI work diligently to find the very best lineup of special guests and each year - expectations are surpassed. In 2011, two cruises are scheduled for the first time - Western Caribbean (January) and Italy (October).

Kathy holds a unique combination in the music and publishing fields. It is the diverse talents and circumstances in Kathy's life that stirs and captivates her audiences. She has allowed both successes and trials to shape her over the years, equipping her for a multi-faceted career. Kathy is intelligent, funny, and raw. She bears scars that have produced a powerful and insightful communicator.

Kathy Troccoli has come a long way since her musical debut in 1982, but her passion for sharing the Gospel and her life lessons through music has not waned a bit.

Kathy continues to travel the world speaking and singing of God's life and love. She partners with James and Betty Robison as guest host of Life Today, and enjoys co-laboring with Life Outreach International in serving the poor in Africa, India and Central America.

Kathy has never been more fulfilled than she is now. “I am exactly where I am supposed to be. There is such freedom in that. Now I truly understand that my singing is just a part of what God has created me to do.” And what is that? “Encouraging, motivating, and inspiring – what a privilege.”
