"Legacy" learned their trade as students at Lubbock Christian University.
In the fall of 2002, while most of the current Lubbock Christian University student population was enjoying rectangle slices of pizza in the high school cafeteria, a group of men embarked upon a journey that would eventually lead them to be known as Legacy. Originally the group consisted of the five male singers from Best Friends, who spent the summer of 2003 traveling and spreading the gospel through song. After recording a CD together, busy schedules and different opportunities forced the group to put their ministry on hold.
In the fall of 2006, after three years apart, God brought the men back together in Lubbock, and they knew it was for a reason. In the summer of 2006 the men began performing at different concerts and also began to work on a new CD, which has now been completed, is available online at www.legacymusiconline.com, and will also be made available in the LCU bookstore in the near future.
While most of the LCU population was not around for the Legacy summer in 2003, most will recognize the men who make up the group.
Singing tenor is Clint Dickerson from Abilene. While at LCU, Clint majored in Criminal Justice, and participated in Praise Choir, Chamber Singers, Master Follies, and many of the musical productions.
Walking the line between tenor and baritone is Jake Lierman. During Jake's tenure at LCU he majored in Education and participated in Best Friends, Praise Choir, and Master Follies. Many of you may have met Jakes little brother Zack, who is a currently a student at LCU.
Belting the baritone is John Paul Sheppard. While attending LCU, John Paul found the love of his life, Delisha, majored in Music, and participated in Praise Choir, Chamber Singers, Best Friends, and Master Follies. You may know Jessica Sheppard, John Paul's little sister who, following in his footsteps, is a current member of Best Friends.
And, booming the bass is Josh Wheeler. Josh is currently a student at LCU and in his time here he has met the love of his life, his wife Mandy, is majoring in education, and has participated in Best Friends.
"Legacy feels very humbled and very blessed that God has brought (us) all back together to do ministry again," said Wheeler. "It is amazing to see how God has worked in each of (our) lives over the past three years, and how He has been preparing (us) for this ministry He has called (us) to do."
