Driving down the road on a hot summer afternoon back in 2004, Tim Woods heard the voice of the Lord. He said it sounded like God was sitting right in the cab of my truck with me. In years past Tim, his four sisters and Mom traveled as the Singing Woods Family. As most families do, they got bigger and schedules get harder to work with so after 25 years of singing together the Singing Woods Family stopped. Tim started a successful trucking company but working lots of long hours in the process took his eyes off of what was important, Jesus Christ. Tim said that he let everything come between him and his relationship with God. Years later Tim`s youngest sister was diagnosed with having brain tumor. It shook him to his very core. "My sister needed prayer and I could not pray for her until I prayed for myself." as Tim voice breaks with emotion. So he got on his knees and prayed and asked the Lord to forgive him and to restore the joy of his salvation, and as Christ promises in His word, he did restore Tim.Not long after he had rededicated his life to the Lord, Tim heard the voice of the Lord calling him back to the music ministry. God laid on his heart to put an all male quartet together. Through this ministry they could reach peoples hearts. Now some time has passed and the group looks and sounds different, the goal is still the same to uplift Christ, to show joy and love to bring honor to his Holy name Full Speed ahead The Woodsmen Quartet have been traveling and singing since Tim received his mesage. They have shared the platform with the best in gospel music, such as, The Gold City, The Kingsmen, Signature Sound, Dixie Melody Boys, and Dove Brothers, but most important to this ministry are the lives that have been touched--- from a grandmother who needs a healing touch from the Master physician to a father who needs to rededicate his life to the Lord, to maybe a teenager who gave her life to the Lord at a Woodsmen Qt. concert. It all starts with a song. ♪
