Virginia Gladly Welcomes
Megan Woods And Her Beautiful Vocals
To Mini Kings Fest
If you listen to Christian radio, chances are that you’ve heard “The Truth” played recently. Megan Woods poured her heart into this single, and it rightfully earned a Dove Award nomination at last year’s K-LOVE Fan Awards. Growing in popularity and talent, Megan has paved her way into the Christian music world, with a handful of beautiful songs to her name, and plenty more on the way. With a soulful voice and heart for God, she provided an authentic night of worship to Virginia.
Mini Kings Fest took place March 20-21 at Mechanicsville Christian Center. Caleb & John headlined Night 1 and Megan Woods headlined Night 2, with Grace Christian School’s One True King, a student-led band, providing a strong opening set of worship covers. The nearly sold out church venue was packed with a crowd of all ages and demographics, each looking eager to sing songs of praise and worship alongside Megan’s powerful vocals.
Once Megan made her way to the stage, the crowd stood and essentially became her backup singers, filling the room with her uplifting lyrics. Megan was very interactive with the crowd, making her way around the venue and showing love to each side of the stage. She was also appreciative of her talented band, who showed such joy in their playing. From breakout hits like “I Believe You” and “History” to collaborative songs like “Let It Begin” (with Big Daddy Weave and Ben Fuller), she had a variety of songs that each resonated in their own ways.
It is always wonderful when an artist makes their motives clear. Megan did exactly that, pointing her talent, career, and reasoning for it all to God. This was elucidated in her well known and growing song “The Truth”, where she sings “The truth is I am truly loved, By a God who’s good when I’m not good enough” and “I don’t belong to the lies, I belong to You, And that’s the truth”. We are all guilty of something, but we do not belong to that sin and shame. We belong to God, who loves and forgives, and that is quite simply the truth. Megan Woods has a beautiful career in music ahead, and this show gave us a taste of what is to come.
