The Missourians

Troy Wade - baritone, Bob Durham - piano, David Markley - bass, Tim Louderback - lead, Michael Sargent - tenor.

The Missourians are a combination of various musical talents each devoted to God. While their roots are in southern gospel music, this Joplin, MO. based group has developed a unique blend that combines southern gospel with a more progressive sound. The hallmarks of the groups sound are their lush arrangements, close-knit harmonies and powerful vocals. What started as a male trio in the 1980's took on that traditional four part harmony sound several years later and the group hasn’t looked back. This exciting vocal group is comfortable performing on concert stages before thousands, as well as in rural churches. The group’s versatility makes them a favorite among young audiences and older music lovers alike. Their ability to adapt to any setting, without compromising the message they present, makes them a favorite wherever their music is shared.

Over the past 20 years the group has recorded a total of 12 albums and 2 videos with their latest project "His Amazing Love". The recording, like each performance, is a testament to the versatility of this talented quartet, as it encompasses a variety of musical genres, without compromising the Gospel message.

The Crusaders for Christ Singers

Jim Griggs - tenor, Shirley Carnes - pianist, Randy Scott - drummer, Jerry Carnes - bass guitar, Corky Long - lead, Ronnie Liles - baritone, Tom Daniel - bass

Jerry and Shirley Carnes organized the Crusaders for Christ Singers in 1973 as a southern gospel quartet. The ensuing years have opened and closed doors, presented opportunity and challenges, brought joy and heartache and produced changes. In 1994 Kenny Roberts, our tenor singer for 18 years went to be with the Lord. We rearranged our songs and ministered as a trio until 2002 when we added a new tenor, lead, and female alto. In 2006 Linda Scott, our female alto went to be with the lord and once again the group was faced with heartache and change. Today we are an all male quartet who has remained faithful to our southern gospel heritage and our calling of presenting Gods message in song. The Crusaders for Christ have made 11 recordings since 1978 and our latest project; "Good Morning" was released in 2007.
