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.

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,

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

I heard him and ate chicken fired steak with him in east TX.
