The Beginning

If ever there was a story of God's Providence, that story would be the love story of Amanda Webb & Grant Soderberg.

Both graduated from high school in 2002. Grant found himself at Texas A&M, Amanda at OU--both studying Finance.

Fall 2004 revealed that both Amanda and Grant were in need of change. While Grant was auditioning at OCU in Oklahoma City, Amanda was in Australia, planning her move to attend Hillsong Bible College. At the last minute she changed her mind and...found herself at OCU in mid-January.

In a five-person Theory & Aural Skills class, Musical Theater major Grant Soderberg and Vocal Performance major Amanda Webb met. He cornered her every day after class, not only talking but asking her many questions. She knew he was going to ask her out. A week later, he finally did. It was the most perfect date Amanda had ever been on!!

A few weeks later, on February 10, 2005, Grant kissed Amanda--just a little peck as they exited a concert Grant had given at school. Both felt the immediate spark. Grant asked her, "What are you thinking?"

Feeling like her stomach was in her throat, Amanda responded. "That you are the man I'm going to marry."

Grant didn't say much; he led her to his car. As soon as he climbed in, he grabbed her hands and prayed over their relationship and future. After he finished, he told her he felt the same way.

They've been together ever since! :)
