Kenneth Farrington — Personal Background
"I have always enjoyed playing the piano since my first lesson at age ten, only days after we got our first piano. It is God who is the source of my talent, and I have had many opportunities to use it for him, including playing piano at church and producing MIDI orchestrations for Christian music. I was blessed to grow up in a home characterized by a love for learning, as well as a love for God and other people. My brother and I were home-schooled all through our academic years. The home school setting and my family's love for God have had much to do both with how I've used my musical ability and with what led me to piano technology as a career.
"My parents could see my keen interest in the technical side of the piano early on, and encouraged me to pursue and develop it. My grandparents bought me my first set of tuning tools when I was about fourteen years old. Even the piano tuner we had back then can probably remember that youngster who loved watching every piano tuning—no surprise I grew up to be a piano tuner! Towards the end of high school, one opportunity led to another, and soon I was doing floor tuning at a local piano dealer showroom. Proper training was essential, however, and I soon began formal studies in the career, improving my tuning skills whenever I could, while I continued to do a little more tuning and basic repairs for local customers.
"The most important thing in my life, though, more than music and pianos, is my relationship with God. At a young age I learned about God's moral law in the Bible. I realized that just like every other person I had broken that law in many points. It was sobering to learn that, like everyone, I was under God's condemnation for this. As a righteous God, he must punish sin, just as a good judge must hand down sentence to a murderer or a thief in court. However, the most wonderful day of my life was when I learned that God loved me so much that he had come to earth as a man and paid my penalty, so that I could go free and enjoy a relationship with him forever.
"That relationship is available to everyone who wants it. What most people don't realize is that Jesus Christ's death on the cross was for one purpose: to bear the death sentence we owed because of our sin. It demonstrated God's immense love for us, and gives every person the opportunity to escape the judgment that we would otherwise face one day after we die. All you have to do is believe it was for you, and ask him forgive you and save you from all your sins, past, present, and future.
"Since that day when I believed that fact, and trusted in Christ, and received God's free gift of salvation, I know that I am on my way to heaven, not to condemnation. I hope you can say the same!" — Ken Farrington
