Let me tell you about the Mighty Men of Faith. They are a truly anointed group. God has blessed them; he knows that their music ministry is not to achieve fame and glory but to encourage believers and bring those lost or discouraged into the Body of Christ. The Mighty Men of Faith says their music is “our instrument to share God’s Grace and Mercy with others." "In today’s world, we all need encouragement. We believe gospel music provides encouragement and reminds us of our blessings. We are hopeful that our music will enrich, enlighten and inspire listeners of all ages.”
The Mighty Men of Faith’s mission is to spread the Word of God through music to the masses. They are willing, much like Jesus, to take the Word of God to a variety of venues. In addition to Churches in California, they have sung at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, CA., at Yoshi’s in Oakland’s Jack London Square, in parks, book stores, Fairs, and theaters. They have performed in Nashville, Tenn, Birmingham, Ala, and Rocky Mount, North Carolina.
How did the Mighty Men of Faith start? The music ministry of the Mighty Men of Faith began at the University AMEZ Church in Palo Alto, CA. In 2007 Wendell Basey and his best friend Malvin Scott joined after several years away from the Church. They both became members of the choir. Wendell and Malvin had sung together in a secular quartet called Onyx1. Being in the ensemble created a closer relationship with God and a desire to form a gospel quartet. They asked William “Pedie” Carswell, another church choir member, to join them in a vocal group. Rev. Edward Harris, the Pastor of the Church, was also asked to join the group.
The group debuted at the Church's Men's Day Ceremony. The theme of the Men's Day event was Men of Faith. Because the group did not have a name, the Master of Ceremony introduced them as the "Mighty Men of Faith."
Since that time, the group name has been the Mighty Men of Faith. They sing songs in the Contemporary Gospel and Christian music format peppered with a modern urban soul flavor. Their unique sound is influenced by the Whispers, Temptations, Marvin Sapp, and Williams Brothers. The Mighty Men of Faith's stated mission is to spread the Word of God to the masses through music. They encourage an authentic atmosphere of worship on stage. Embodying the love of God, their shows are heartfelt and soul-stirring from the first note.
Their trademark sound, personal warmth, and musical diligence leave you eager for more.
