Joel Engle is a Christian recording artist living in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. He has recorded the #1 song "Shadow of Your Cross" and the top 10 songs "Louder Than The Angels" and "Be A Father To Her." As a young boy growing up in San Francisco, Joel Engle never knew his father. His mother raised him the best she could, managing to provide by working a nine to five job at an oil company. Tragedy struck when, at the age of 11, Joel found his mother lying on the kitchen floor after suffering a stroke. She died soon after, leaving Joel in the care of his elderly grandparents. Just three years later there was even more upheaval when Joel's grandfather died and his grandmother went to live in a retirement home. "Life was basically miserable and I was constantly afraid," reflected Joel. "I was consumed with thoughts of what was going to happen to me. I felt alone, unloved, and unhappy." At the age of 14, there was no other option for Joel but to check himself into the local Baptist Children's Home.
