Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on October 19, 1980)

Happy Birthday, JJ Heller! May your day be filled with joy brighter than the spotlight from "Your Hands," laughter warmer and more comforting than every lyric of "What Love Really Means," and cake that's number one—as sweet as hitting the top fifteen on those Christian charts!

You've touched so many hearts through heartfelt melodies that make us smile (and sometimes ugly-cry in a good way). Here's hoping this year continues to bless you abundantly—more music, endless inspiration, plenty of reasons to laugh out loud—and maybe fewer takes during recording sessions. Keep strumming life's beautiful chord; you're timelessly wonderful!
