Leon C. Lewis  who succeeded Neal wrote and arranged I Still Believe and was tasked with completing the project started by his friend and mentor.  “Taking over for Hanq Neal was a bittersweet honor,” Lewis shares, “he prepared me for the journey.”

The mass choir of Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church consists of over 200 voices united in praise ministering to the congregation that numbers over 13,000.  Senior Pastor Dr. Marcus Cosby has a heart for worship and joins the choir on the disc.
