In every aspect of our lives we endeavour to be vessels of honour pouring out His Spirit "to the praise of His glory"
For almost eighteen years, this little family of friends has peppered playing together and touring in the midst of raising families, building lives in different locales and adventuring through diverse jobs. Performing at camps, churches, schools, weddings, barns and backyards in various countries throughout the world. Our style of music varies from fun and frolicking, high energy praise, to a softer, more contemplative tone.

"I love the Word of God. He is the Word. Most all my life I have been intrigued with scripture and how it speaks to us by the Spirit of God. To me, He speaks His "proceeding word" through a musical phrase or melody. I may be listening to Bishop Brooks, or one of our Teachers and suddenly, He whispers a tune in my ear. This is how most of the songs our Lord has given me were created. A spoken living Word blown into the ear of my Spirit, by the Holy Ghost. Sounds kinda weird, but true nevertheless." Tim
Tim and Charmian a.k.a. Sharmenian, Sharleen, Charnagin, etc. McCurry live in Brantford, Ontario, with their children, David and Kestra.
We Believe
2 Corinthians 4:13
We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
We Believe that the scriptures of the bible are by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and are the sure Word of God, and are they which testify of Jesus Christ.
We Believe and continue in the Apostles' doctrine (the doctrine of the 12 Apostles of the Lamb), and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers, for we have believed on Jesus Christ through their word.
We Believe there is one body, and one Spirit, and that we are called in one hope of our calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God, Who is Spirit, Who is our Father, Who was revealed in His only begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
We Believe that a virgin, named Mary, conceived the Son of God in her womb through the miraculous power of the Holy Spirit that had come upon her and overshadowed her. And when the days were accomplished that she should give birth she brought forth her first born son named Jesus, which is Christ the Lord, for He would save His people from their sins.
We Believe that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that we are saved by grace through faith and that not of ourselves, it is the gift of God.
We Believe that the world has been reconciled unto God through the cross of Christ and because of that "whosoever will may come", but not all of mankind will be reconciled to God which is alone is by the free gift of righteousness by the one man Jesus Christ and that by faith in His blood.
We Believe in the finished work of the cross; that Jesus Christ took our infirmities, bare our sicknesses, and bare our sins in His own body on the tree, by Whose stripes we were healed; spirit, soul and body.
We Believe that because God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, that whosoever believes in Him would not perish but have everlasting life, that He died for our sins, that He was buried and that He rose again the third day as according to the scriptures and Apostolic tradition.
We Believe that except a man be born again of the Spirit of Christ he cannot enter the Kingdom of God and that there is only one Name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved... the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Neither is their salvation in any other.
We Believe that the Lord adds to His church daily such as should be saved, because before the foundation of the world we were chosen in Christ to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and by our belief of the truth. For from the beginning, by His foreknowledge, the Lord already knew who would believe and who would not. Therefore whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to beconformed to the image of his Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
We Believe that not all of those who are of natural Israel (the Jews) are of spiritual Israel (the church; one new man of both Jew and Gentile converts) for it is the children of the promise (those born again of the Spirit) who are accounted as the seed. However, there is now "the elect" of natural Israel consisting of a divinely chosen remnant of (1) those presently in Christ, and (2) those called to the same remnant and yet to be saved. Yet when "the fullness of the Gentiles be come in", God shall take away the blindness from the hearts of the remainder of natural Israel to see Jesus Christ as their Messiah also. So in this way, both Jew and Gentile will enter into their salvation by faith and through the grace of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
We Believe in being baptized with the Holy Ghost and speaking with other tongues, and that in this baptism we are anointed with the Holy Spirit and with power that we may go about and do good, healing all those who are oppressed of the Devil, for God is with us.
We Believe in the manifestation of the sovereign Presence of the Holy Spirit among us, and of the demonstration of the Spirit with power in us through the speaking of His Word and preaching, and of the manifestation of His Spirit by us through His gifts of the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, faith, gifts of healing, the working of miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits, tongues and interpretation of tongues, that our faith should not stand in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.
We Believe that Jesus Christ is the Chief Corner Stone of His church and that the church is built upon the foundation of the ministry of the 12 Apostles of the Lamb in union with the scriptures of the Old Testament Prophets, and that the ministry of Christ is an Apostolic and High Priestly ministry after the order of Melchisedec.
We Believe that Christ continues today to give and to anoint, by the Spirit, Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers to perfect, to equip and to empower the members of His church (which is His Body) to do the work of the ministry in the local church and in the nations.
We Believe that the church is a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people that should show forth the praises of Him Who has called us out of darkness into His marvellous light, because by the church shall all men be made to know the fellowship of the mystery of Christ in us.
We Believe that Spirit of Christ is now our spirit and our life, that He is now living in our bodies, that our soul man has been recreated in Christ and is now dwelling in Him. Now we are residing in the Spirit, not in the flesh, and we are now a man in Christ, and our bodies are now the temple of the Holy Ghost. So it is now no longer we who live in the flesh but it is Christ Who lives in us, and the the life we now live while in our earthly bodies is by the faith of the Son of God dwelling in us... and we believe what Jesus believes!
We Believe the Word of the Lord that lives and abides forever and that this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto us; that the Word which was in the beginning was made flesh in Jesus the Christ, the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth, and that His glory was revealed unto His Apostles Whom he had chosen.
We Believe that God, Who in the beginning commanded the light to shineout of darkness, hath shined in our hearts to givethe light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face (person) of Jesus Christ and that we have this treasure in our earthen vessels that the excellency of the power may be of God and not of us, that the life also of Jesus might be manifested in our souls and in our mortal flesh.
We Believe that God is of power to turn the whole church resolutely as one new man in Christ by the gospel of the Apostles' and by the preaching of Christ as our life (according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret since the world began, but is now made manifest) and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment ("Let there be Light") of the everlasting God, to be made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:
We Believe that we have been called by the gospel to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ and that this is the hope of the gospel because Christ is in us the hope of glory.
We Believe that now we are the sons of God and our earnest expectation is for the manifestation of the Son of God in us, that the glory of the Lord may be revealed through each one of us, that Name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified by us.
We Believe that the knowledge of the glory of the Lord shall be revealed in and by His people and that by the church shall the glory of the Lord cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. For the present appearing of Christ unto His church is so that He may be glorified in His saints and to be admired in all them that believe.
We Believe the gospel of the Kingdom of God which our Lord Jesus Christ preached and that He revealed unto His Apostles, and that now is come salvation and strength and the Kingdom of our God and the power of His Christ, for the accuser of the brethren (the Devil) is cast down.
We Believe that the Kingdom of God rules over all, is everlasting, full of glory and power, is ever increasing in government and peace and that His dominion will endure throughout all generations. We are Kingdom always!
We Believe there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust at the return coming of our Lord Jesus Christ to the earth. The righteous unto the resurrection of life, with resurrected bodies fashioned like unto the glorious body of Jesus Christ. For he that believes has everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation. The evil will rise unto the resurrection of damnation, for he that does not believe is damned already.
We Believe that the Lord Jesus Christ shall judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His Kingdom, because there is appointed a day in the which the world shall be judged in righteousness by Him, and that we shall all stand before the judgement seat of Christ.
We Believe that God is love and in the love that God has to us so that we may have boldness in the day of judgment. We abide in His love and are beholding what manner of lovethe Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God, Who in Christ has already delivered us from the wrath to come.
We Believe in the rewards assigned to the servants of God by Jesus Christ, Who shall reward every man according to his work. Also in the reward of the inheritance, as being joint-heirs with Christ, of our spiritual bodies and the inheritance of the Kingdom.
We Believe the same Jesus, Whom the heaven must receive until the restitution (restoration) of all things spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began, that this same Jesus will return again to the earth when He has put down all other rule and all authority and power beneath the feet of His Church. And then comes the end when He shall deliver up the Kingdom to God the Father.
