Eddie James Ministries & Kurt Carr Singers

[unitedpraise10]

I think it's pretty cool that the United Pentecostal Church is represented in Eddie James Ministries. One of his main back-up singers is a former IBC student. She said she will uphold his standards and beliefs.

The Kurt Carr singers also has a United Pentecostal back up singer. Still upholding standards and beliefs.

Safe to say that the UPCI has some of the best vocal talent in the Religious sector. :icecream

I know that Vonnie sings with Kurt Carr but which former IBC student sings for Eddie James?

You said "She will uphold HIS standards". Who is the 'he" you are referring to? Eddie James? If so what is his standards (I have never heard of him)?

Alicia Hudson is one of the singers on his team. Though she is talented, she's hardly the best. And, is she really UPCI? Word has it that her home church is Relevant church, she has cut hair, wears make-up and even jewelry.

Every young Apostolic girl these days wears make-up.... definitely not uncommon. It's more uncommon to be one of the few that don't.

And is cut hair and jewelry also common?

relevant church isn't upc. do baptist folks and aog folks also make any singer remotely connected to a national recording artist their claim to fame too? :hehehe

I assure you, she doesn't attend Relevant Church. ....and the second claim is preposterous.

Not to be argumentive, nor judgemental, but not all do!

Just sayin....

Relevant Church in Carrolton, KY. Her home church prior to her gig with Eddie James Ministries.

[canam]

never heard of him,standards ? really !

[MissBrattified]

Eddie James has written some great songs, especially for worship teams and choir. Lion of Judah, I Am, Psalms 23, Free to Run and Jesus Said It, among others. "I Am" and "Psalms 23" are two of my personal favorites.

No one said Alicia was "the best" singer on his team. :rolleyes2

I think the idea is that Vonnie Lopez and Alicia Hudson are great singers, and they sing with national recording artists because they are actually really great vocalists with real talent. It's not a "claim to fame"; it's a statement of fact. I would be pretty proud of my girls if they were singing with Kurt Carr or Eddie James--or Vonnie Lopez, or Nancy Grandquist, for that matter. Quite an honor, from a musician's or singer's perspective.

I thought Vonnie was Apostolic Assemblies of the Lord Jesus Christ ????? I've seen her on more than one occasion at different churches she has had a chapel veil on her head. I just assumed she was Apostolic Assemblies but correct me if I'm wrong.

she took over her daddy's church in LA. it's a UPC church.

The poster used these two as examples for UPC having some of the best singers. Theres no doubt talent but being a backup singer for a recording artist doesn't put you in the "best" category

and Alicia isnt UPC if you include her include kings of leon

[MissBrattified]

"She took over?" LOL!!!! Her husband is now the pastor. I don't think that means that Vonnie L. "took over her daddy's church."

She may no longer be UPC (I don't really know one way or the other), but she did attend IBC. I don't suppose anyone really cares, but she does have a UPC background. Whether she sticks with that or not is no one's business really, but it's still part of her roots. It'll be part of my heritage forever, no matter where God takes me. Why the push to assert that it doesn't mean anything?

UP1 said that he thought it was cool that the UPCI was represented in ej ministries...and that VL does the same with Kurt Carr. I'm not sure I get why that's rubbing you the wrong way. :) I think it's cool, too. EJ and KC are both very talented (and cool), and the people that sing with them are also very talented. What's so bad about that?

No...I assume if she had on a chapel veil, it was out of respect for the assembly they were visiting.

[Aleks Fife]

wrong. her husband and her were on staff at an Assemblies church for many years in Northern California. She did many recordings with norcal mass

taking over dads church. you know what I meant. she's the subject not aaron and her role is shared.

I could cover a wall with the top notch recording artists represented by cogic, baptist, coc, methodist, non-denom etc UPC has good music and talent but the words "some of the best" should be reserved if all were offering are choir members and backup vocalists. at least vl is a soloist on the album too.

im independent and have no ill toward the UPCI but have heard that naive boasting forever

[PraiseHymn]

Cool I stand corrected.

[CC1]

Since Vonnie was Murrell Ewing's daughter she was raised UPC in Lake Charles Louisiana. She became Apostolic Assemblies by virtue of marrying a Hispanic guy who was AA.

My understanding is that she is the "preacher" part of the pastor team of her and her husband at her dads church.

[MissBrattified]

Cool I stand corrected.

No, I was wrong, apparently. I know that Eastwood is UPCI--not AA. So whether she was AA (or her husband may still be???), the Lake Charles church is not.

[soldoutochrist]

Saw Eddie James live a few weeks ago. His singers and dancers were some of the nicest, most humble kids I've ever met..awesome for her. He's an great guy who loves Jesus. :thumbsup

YES they are!

[Aleks Fife]

YES they are!

Well then the WPF was justified in their schism since their site and ministry leaders wear make-up, lipstick, earrings, rings, necklaces, pants, tv/movies, basically everything the upc says they believe about external holiness.

they are about as upc as td jakes.
