It felt odd wearing a summer dress in February, but as I walked into the West Jacksonville Baptist Church (WJBC) it felt more like summer. Then again, we were in Florida…and it sure beat the winter temperatures we left at home! It was the night before the cruise (Singing at Sea) and one of the…
The night sky glared down through the glass atrium as I rushed through the Delta to get to the Governor’s Ballroom. Time had slipped away from me at the Opry Mills Mall and now I had to ignore the beauty around me to quickly reach the concert that no doubt had already started. Yet, the…
Applause broke out as Legacy Five walked on stage at the Gaylord Opryland Resort in Nashville, Tennessee on New Year’s Eve. “Y’all know these guys?” Scott Fowler asked with a smile and outstretched arms. “Why don’t we start the evening with prayer,” bowing his head, Scott went on to acknowledge that many will be glad…
