The Ministry of 2ND Mile began in 1986 and has continued
to grow as the group performs in churches and at concerts across the southeastern part of America. Simple but sincere southern
gospel music that speaks to the heart of the listener has always been a trademark of the group. The year 1996 saw 2ND Mile
score their first Singing News top 80 chart song with the moving ballad, “In Your Hands.” Founding group members,
Reggie Lovorn and Richard Ferguson are excited about the songs on their latest project from Megoa Music, entitled “JUST
THAT WAY.” The material includes the hard driving southern gospel tunes, “I Was There” and the fun sound of
the title cut, “He’s Just that Way”. The project also includes the big ballads, “God Will Have A Church,”
and “What Does He Have To Do”. A 2ND MILE concert will feature these new tunes as well as traditional hymns of the
church. Veteran vocalist Robby Bennett rounds out the vocal group, with musician Tim Buchanan providing instrumental support.
A concert by 2ND Mile includes music, personal testimony, and humor and is sure to leave the listener refreshed and renewed.
