Todd Agnew (Sep. 08) in Concert at Brookwood
“There’s no such thing as a dumb question.”
But there’s one place where this idea tends not to apply. So many -- young and old, male and female, seeker and believer alike -- run into opposition of asking the tough questions in the one place they should feel most free, the church.
Todd Agnew wants to help put a stop to that. Through his travels as a recording artist and performer, he has seen it start to happen on its own.
“I’m just finding more and more people who aren’t fooled by the ‘everything’s fine’ version of Christianity,” the Texas-bred Memphis resident says. “I’m just trying to just get some of those questions out there, the questions people are afraid to ask in church, but also to get the questions asked sincerely and without anger.”
Which brings Agnew to this place in time and art, using his platform and talent to get to the core of who we are as humans, to get to that moment where we’re able to ask the Better Questions:
What happens when you die?
Why do we define people by their mistakes?
How does God still care for us when we keep messing things up?
Todd Agnew’s willingness to stand up and provide perspective and voice to this and more doesn’t come from a place of anger or defiance, but rather from the experiences of a man continuing to wrestle with the very questions he poses.
From his debut Ardent release Grace Like Rain to the sophomore explorations of Reflection of Something to the epic nature of last year’s seasonal effort Do You See What I See? to the present-day realities of Better Questions, there is a deepening lyrical maturity displaying confidence while still maintaining power and edge.
This set of songs came to Todd with a clarity with which even he was surprised.
About Steven & Nichole
“We are not prisoners of fate, but prisoners of our own mind…” Franklin D. Roosevelt once said. Freedom, hope, and love are what Steven & Nichole aspire to bring to the earth. This husband and wife duo offers an eclectic mix of music colored with acoustic-driven: blues, easy listening, pop, rock, and folk. Their music has a recurring theme of the good news that God alone can unlock their prison door and set them free in Christ.
