As Fernando Ortega takes the stage at Trinity University in suburban Chicago, the crowd’s enthusiasm quiets in rapt attention and then wonder as Ortega sings the haunting opening lines of the old spiritual “Give Me Jesus.” It is this song, from his album Home, that preacher Anne Graham Lotz has called her “absolute favorite,” one that comforted her when her own son Jonathan was battling cancer. It is also the composition that forged a personal and professional relationship between the two starting in 1998, when Lotz first invited Ortega to lead some worship seminars at the Billy Graham Training Center in North Carolina. Since then, Ortega has been the guest musician for every “Just Give Me Jesus” revival that Lotz’s AnGeL Ministries has sponsored.”*
