May you gain some insight about next steps for you today, and fresh peace in the midst of whatever season you’re in. Our Scripture for today comes from Isaiah 58:11, and today's worship is Lead Me by KJ Scriven. ________ Last year felt like a wilderness and a desert in many ways.

Every week you will hear our guests share real facts, real stories, and real ways you can help eradicate trafficking in the United States by 2030.

Nigel "Legin" Anderson is a spoken word artist, gospel hip hop artist, podcaster and preacher/speaker who uses transparency to connect and art to communicate with his listeners.  Inspired by his father's battle with addiction, Legin speaks about fatherlessness to forgiveness, as well as racial reconciliation and urban apologetics amongst other topics, and the hope of the gospel in his music.     Legin's recent spoken word release Dark Room  tells listeners that “pictures develop best in dark rooms” and that “all things work together” (Rom. 8:28) in the hands of God. Legin has appeared on stage with Lecrae and opened for artists like KB, Tedashii, Da' T.R.U.T.H., Social Club, Canon, Aaron Cole, and Flame among others.  He has produced and promoted tours throughout the United States and has performed in London, England; Nairobi, Kenya; and Pretoria and Cape Town, South Africa.  Through his label Renaissance Music Legin released the compilation album Lions in Suits (2016) as well as his Cloud 12 EP (2014), amongst other releases.

A Hampton Roads, VA, native, Legin, his wife, Tia, and their two children attend Crossroads Church, an SBC church,  in Norfolk, VA, where he preaches monthly and serves on staff. Both he and his church subscribe to the Baptist Faith and Message.   All social media + Spotify @legintv Label www.rmmusic.tv   ------ Safe House Project's vision is to see communities across America unite to end domestic sex trafficking and restore hope and freedom to every survivor, while building a better future through preventing the spread of child sex trafficking. When everyone engages for change, we can eradicate child sex trafficking in America by 2030. www.SafeHouseProject.org https://www.facebook.com/SafeHousePrjct  https://instagram.com/safehouseproject

The KJ and Will show!... Just kidding everyone. ; Last week I had the privilege of rehearsing with KJ Scriven for a worship concert in Florence South Carolina. This is an original song KJ wrote that we only performed once together. We only rehearsed the song together once before we shot this video. KJ is one of those artists you have to pay close attention to because his style is often full of improvisation. Also KJ is a drummer so he knows what he likes and wants. That can be intimidating if you are not confident and the artist is not humble. KJ however is a very humble guy and I will say that we are of one heart and mind musically. While performing together we tend to speak the same language, spiritually, emotionally, and technically. I believe this is a good video to display improvisation, creativity, and technique upon the congas in an urban, jazz, pop, Gospel & R&B type setting (whew that is a mouthful). The tones and notes I am applying here are bass, slap, muff and some open notes. Focus mainly on the bass, slap, and muff and use open to accent the breaks and vocals of the song. I find that in many melodic soulful or pop settings it is very important to use a combination of bass and muff to deliver a full fat sound. The bass gives it the low end and the muff delivers a full softer open resonance of the drum. Below this paragraph is a rough notation of what I am actually playing. Remember L=Left hand R=Right hand B=Bass S=Slap M=Muff and T=Touch (although in this scenario the touches are not necessarily ghost notes but rather slightly softer than a regular open or muff tone. Listen to the sound and let that be your guide. It should blend well with the rythm.) The Bass is played on the 1 and downbeats while slaps are used for the accent. Notice artists like KJ will have a body language that will tell you when and where to play the downbeat or on the one. In this case when he rocks forward, dips his right shoulder and administers a harder sharper down stroke on the guitar that is him feeling the downbeat or bass as well as the accents. Also the intonation and inflection of his voice will change. There are improvisations of course and this is only a crude explanation however I hope it gives insight to what is going on in our minds as we play. A lot of it is in technique and development of such but the reliance upon following your heart after you have practiced (what "feels" right) and above all God's guidance during the song should be your strongest leading. God bless you guys and don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and give us feedback.
