    Nobody and I mean nobody does gospel as good as the Statler's! They're the best. That TV show they had was the best show on TNN!!!!!

    I miss the days when they were on the radio all the time. I've been listening to southern gospel a couple days now. My heart goes from aching to overwhelming joy in instant rollercoaster hills. Thank you Jesus for planting that seed in me. Deep within my rotten, wretched and wicked heart. You have changed me. I feel convicted of my sins now because of you Lord. The sorrow and shame of being a sinner. The joy for being thought of. The joy of being written down in the book of life. Of being Saved..

    I loved this group so much and was so sad when they retired, The Bible does not speak of retirement. He gave them a gift that should of been used until they could not sing for Jesus. They changed life's . Giving Praise and Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ with their voices giving his message to the world . That is what we are suppose to do in our older age. That is one reason I believe he keeps us here as we get older. It is not about us. It is all about helping people to know God' son !

    • @ATrustedAuthority
      @ATrustedAuthority 7 років тому +3

      When people grow older their voices change. Perhaps they did not "chose" to retire from music? They can (and I hope they do) serve in other ways.

    • @EarlJohn61
      @EarlJohn61 5 років тому

      Of course the Bible doesn't speak of retirement...
      When it was written, very few people lived past their 50th birthday...
      A man living to his 60th birthday would've been like someone living to 100 nowadays (it happens occasionally but you wouldn't want to bet on it!)

I fail often, but I know when I do and I work to not fail again. We will join them again one day, and when we do, we will know true perfection.
