My Hope Radio: In three or four sentences, how would you describe your journey of faith?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lindel Anderson: My mother\u2019s family were some of the first to receive the Apostolic message in Southeastern Missouri. \u00a0My eighty- seven year old mother, Virginia Anderson, from Paragould, Arkansas, has had the Holy Ghost for over eighty years. \u00a0I am her seventh son and grew up in Paragould, Arkansas, where we attended Revival Center UPC, under the ministry of Pastor W. D. Ryles. \u00a0I received the Holy Ghost at the age of five during a revival with Evangelist George Glass, Sr and was soon baptized in the name of Jesus. \u00a0During my junior high years, I began to feel a call to music ministry. \u00a0I have been involved in full-time music ministry for about thirty years.<\/p>\n

MHR: What is your favorite Scripture in the Bible?<\/strong><\/p>\n

LA: Proverbs 3: 5-6, \u201cTrust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.\u201d<\/p>\n

MHR: What is your music background? (Who influenced you, when did you start singing, etc…)\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

LA: I began taking piano lessons at age nine and took band during high school. \u00a0My college degrees include a Bachelor of Music in Education and a Master of Music in Education from Arkansas State University where my major instrument was the saxophone. \u00a0I am presently pursuing a Doctorate of Worship Studies at the Robert E. Webber Institute of Worship.<\/p>\n

My early years included primarily hymn singing and southern gospel music. During my teens, I was influenced heavily by Black Gospel artists such as Andrae Crouch and the Disciples and Walter Hawkins and the Love Alive Choir. My college years gave me a good classical appreciation and I was also introduced to jazz and participated in the University Jazz Band. During the next several years of my life, the music of Lanny Wolfe\/Jackson College of Ministries and Geron Davis\/The Pentecostals of Alexandria were very influential. \u00a0I\u2019ve been the Dean of Music at Indiana Bible College the past fifteen years. \u00a0Without a doubt, the many talented students that I have been privileged to mentor during the last fifteen years, have also made a great impression upon me. \u00a0They have caused me to appreciate the music of their generation. \u00a0(You don\u2019t have to like it to appreciate it!)<\/p>\n

MHR: What specific themes do you cover in your songs? Why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

LA: Colossians 3:16, \u201cLet the word of Christ dwell in your richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.\u201d Psalms are scripture songs or songs based on the scripture. \u00a0Hymns are songs of praise to God. Spiritual songs are songs given by the Spirit and may be a testimony of a spiritual experience or about something God has done. \u00a0I try to make sure that my repertoire would fit into one of these three scriptural types of musical worship.<\/p>\n

MHR: Do you write your own songs? (If so, discuss your usual songwriting process.)<\/strong><\/p>\n

LA: I have written a few songs, but do not consider myself a proliferate songwriter. \u00a0It does not come easy for me. \u00a0I consider myself more of a music arranger.<\/p>\n

MHR: Where can we listen, purchase, and connect with you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

LA: I\u2019m the dean of music at Indiana Bible College. \u00a0Several of our videos are uploaded to YouTube. \u00a0Our online store is at VoiceVision.com. \u00a0The latest IBC recording, IBC Live 2010 \u2013 COME HOME, was recently released and can be purchased and downloaded at our online store in digital format (mp3, sheet music in PDF format, and split track mp3) or you may purchase the CD, DVD, Music Book or Music in PDF format, and split track as a hard copy and have it shipped to you. \u00a0To place an order over the phone, call 317.262.4030 Ext. 311. \u00a0You may follow me on twitter @LindelAnderson or connect on FaceBook at Indiana Bible College Music. \u00a0Other web sites: \u00a0Go2IBC.com , IBCMusicFest.com , and pentecostalpublishing.com.<\/p>\n
