He shared these gifts, and his love and faith through singing, writing music, and performing with his most cherished friend Mark Williamson with the Sounding Hope Ministry. Together they shared the hope of God through the instrument of music, and in 2016 "Breaking Through the Darkness" album was released, with Greg featured as a special artist. Mark and Greg also performed together on numerous occasions, including a special album release concert to celebrate the Sounding Hope Ministry mission and the release of the album. Greg also wrote countless beautiful and heartfelt poems based on faith, hope, and love. He also enjoyed taking pictures that captured the beauty of this world and beyond, especially majestic sunsets. He also loved spending hours listening to and being inspired by his extensive music collection comprised of his favorite artists and songs.
