In their second conversation with Steve Amerson, Tracy and Chris talk and listen and laugh again. While many people hear to the news reports and the negativity in today's politics, Steve has gotten to know personally the leaders at Capitol Hill. He listens to their stories. He prays for them and with them. He offers encouragement to them. Television and movie tracks aren't the only parts of his story. Steve has been leading worship twice each month for the last ten years to those in the United States government. His talent is amazing. His heart brings hope. Think about how he is connecting with key leaders and young influencers. What can we learn from Steve? How can we obey God when He takes us places we do not expect to go? How can we be servant leaders influencing today's culture? Isn't impacting people much better than complaining? Isn't it best to use our talents and interests to connect with people who are waiting for someone who will listen to them and pray for them? Let Steve lead us as Christ followers.

Chris and Tracy are glad you could join them in another episode of Next Step Leadership. In this conversation, they talk with Steve Amerson—a world class vocalist. Steve has been involved in various ministries and music around the world. Twice monthly he travels to Washington DC to lead Word on the Hill, a spiritual encounter for leaders in the United States Government. Steve grew up on a pastor's home and his mother led the children's choirs. He learned many lessons spiritually, musically, and pastorally through his parents and their years of service. He continued his life of learning as he began leading others musically. From his years of education and ministry, and many seasons of letting God guide his decisions, Steve gladly tells his story of being a Christ follower. Listen to his story of singing in huge concerts and conventions. Hear how God continues placing Steve with worldwide decision makers. Think of ways God is working in and through your talent, just as He is singing songs of grace through Steve.
