The Symphony of Life: Reverend John Nickens on Intuition, Music, and Authenticity

Ever had a gut feeling so strong, it was impossible to ignore? Our guest, Rev. John Nickens, shares his compelling story of how trusting his instincts as a child not only kept him safe but guided him throughout his life.

From intuitive child to musician, to leader and parent, Rev. Nickens's journey is a fascinating one. He attributes his success in stepping into leadership roles and parenthood to his experience as a musician, revealing how his passion for music influenced his method of teaching his children about life. It's an intimate look at the transformation that happens when one seamlessly intertwines their passion with their everyday roles.

He discusses the pivotal role of remaining true to oneself, focusing on audience connection and the profound impact music can have in a church service.
