Greg McCool
 
How many of you know Bro Greg McCool? He was with us this morning for our English service. I am not a big Country fan but I can listen to him. He is very funny and his testimony is amazing. He comes from a long line of Pentecostal Apostolic preachers and talented musicians. Man can he play the guitar.
If you don't know him his is worth having by your church to sing and speak. Not a preacher but he does leave a powerful testimony. He can make you laugh and then make you cry.

He's fantastic. I know him as he originates from the church I attended when living in southern Illinois (remember the song 'the Pentecost church on West Monroe'? That's his church, and the description of the service in that song is how it was when he wrote it). Was his son with him? It's been years since I've seen him, and I'm thinking his son is probably in his mid-20's now.

I'm glad he's still around and touring. I'd love to see him again.

I am not a really big fan of soloists, but the one time I saw Bro. McCool, I did enjoy him. I bought 3 of his cassettes. Now that tells you how long it has been!

I have never seen him in person but someone who had seen him in person and had purchased a tape let me borrow it years ago.

:reaction

It was like fingernails on a chalkboard....

WHEW...

I am not a big fan of country music and that tape oozed country like nothing I have ever experienced.

I remember some crazy song about Injun Joe or something like that.

My neck is tight now and I am getting a headache just remembering that tape. :)

Heard Bro. Greg McCool in Plano, TX years ago and later at another church in
North TX. I related to his "Special Unspoken Request" about a mother who always
had a special unspoken request and he was the object of that request. At the time
we had two sons away from God and I easily related to the words. Also liked to
hear him sing "Scars" as I had a few!
It's easy to relate to places we're been and experiences we have gone through!
But the joy of the son singing for God about his mother's "Special Unspoken Request"
should give any mother hope that too her sons/daughters would be living for God
again. She should never give up making that special unspoken request. God is faithful
and He answers those mothers and fathers prayers for her children. Don't give up on
God! He didn't give up on us, did He!

Blessings,

"Special Unspoken Request" is the song that has stayed with me most thru the years. Up until the time I heard that song, I didn't like it when people would say "I have a special unspoken request". I believed in "let your needs be made known". But since it worked for Bro McCool's mom, I don't have any reservations anymore about those special unspoken requests. Quite often I find myself raising my hand now when the Pastor says "who all have unspoken requests?"
note to d4t, Sorry that you had such a strong allergic reaction to Bro. McCool's music. I have that kind of problem with most of the P&W stuff so I understand.

My pastor is trying to get this brother at our church.But he's kinda booked up.
He was saved out of playing clubs in Detroit Michigan I love his kind of music.

I can handle it, I like Southern Gospel.

Bro. Bobby McCool played drums at our church camp every year.

Bro. Mark McCool hangs out on Pentecostzone. He does'nt claim relationship to any of the others....( yeah right ) I tease him about it.:toofunny

His bro pastors a church, Apostolic Faith Tabernacle, just around the corner from my house in Ferndale, Michigan. It's a suburb just a mile outside of Detroit. :whistle

Greg is the nephew of the Bishop at the church where I was raised in TN. Greg has a great testimony. He is an awesome guitar player too. I have seen him when I lived in TN, IL, and AZ. He is great

And I bet it's Faith Apostolic Church in Knoxville! Before my Father-in-Law got papers with the United Pentecostal Church International, He (and my Mother-in-Law) and several of the "older" saints at our church, were Assemblies of the Lord Jesus Christ (in the past, there weren't the "divides" between Oneness organizations there seem to be today). Of course, the ALJC as we know it today wouldn't be if it weren't for the McCools. All people in the ALJC and several in the UPCI know that FAC in Knoxville, TN, is THE place in the ALJC! I am a member of the Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ in Auburn Hills, Michigan, which was an ALJC for years before it switched over to the UPCI. In addition, I have attended Grace Apostolic Church, which is an ALJC, in my area. In addition to that, one of my "pals" in school was Marvin Minton, the son of Brother Minton, an ALJC pastor of Apostolic Gospel Tabernacle in the neighborhood where I lived (a few years later, Bro Minton went to Tennesee and Apostolic Gospel Tabernacle merged with my church, Revival Tabernacle).

There are two UPC churches in Auburn Hills?

I went to FAC pastored by the McCools. I do know about Faith Apostolic some friends went there.

:club Hee...Hee...I guess I need to clarify -- Revival Tabernacle was the name of the church we attended when Apostolic Gospel Tabernacle merged with it. Revival Tabernacle and Apostolic Gospel Tabernacle were/are churches in the Flint, Michigan, area. :aaa I am surprised that I don't know Chuck & Becky Hayes from South Flint Tabernacle. South Flint Tabernacle was the church I was baptized in Jesus' name in, and came to the Revelation of Jesus Christ in. It was a llooonnnnggggg time ago, though (1978), when Bishop Wilson was the Pastor.

I'm sorry, Chuck and Becky Hayes go to the church in Auburn Hills. Becky and I were raised at SFT and it was during the time Bro. Wilson was there as well as when Bro. Henson.
