Add Widget Before Blog Page Loop Genesis

genesis_register_sidebar( array(
'id' => 'custom-widget',
'name' => __( 'Custom Widget', 'wpsites' ),
'description' =>  __( 'Display Content Before Blog Page Loop', 'wpsites' ),
) );
/**

add_action( 'genesis_before_content', 'wpsites_custom_widget', 5 );
function wpsites_custom_widget() {
if ( is_page_template( 'page_blog.php' ) && is_active_sidebar( 'custom-widget' ) ) 
    genesis_widget_area( 'custom-widget', array(
    'before' => '<aside class="custom-widget">',
    'after'  => '</aside>',
) );
}
	

I'm trying to add the Genesis Responsive Slider widget to my blog page with no luck using all the plugins available... works on new pages, but not the blog page. Is this the code I need to make that work? Where do I add it? Appreciate any help.

No laughing at a non-techie... :)

Updating to say I found a way to do this...
