The multiplatinum-selling and Grammy Award-winning Christian band Casting Crowns brought its melodic sound and powerfully transparent lyrics to the Vines Center stage for the April 26 Convocation.
The band played a variety of songs from its 12th studio album, “Healer,” released last year, and from its 2018 release, “Only Jesus,” as well as a few of its classic hits.
Lead singer Mark Hall spoke about his struggles with attention deficit disorder and dyslexia in his youth and how he battled depression as a result before he surrendered his disorders to God and confided in others.
He challenged Liberty students, regardless of their choice of majors or their intended professions, to be world changers by sharing the Gospel with those who are lost.
“Remember that the reason you are here … is not to go be a doctor,” Hall said. “You are not here to be a performer. You are not here to be a filmmaker. You are here to know God and to make God known. You are here to pour Jesus into other people. If you can’t give your faith away, it might not be yours. So dig in and let God always be dissecting the motives of our hearts and why we do what we do.”
