Not By Chance Ministries is a non-profit evangelical organization dedicated to spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ through word and music. Our mission, as should be of all Christians, is to "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" (Mark 16:15). Our main ministry is music, specifically bluesgrass gospel music. Our group has 6 members and we are all from the West Georgia area. Mickey Richards plays banjo, Ashley Duncan plays guitar and sings lead/harmony, Jeff Merrell plays mandolin and sings tenor, Angie Hawkesworth sings lead/harmony, Amos "Moose" Wilder plays bass and Josh Hawksworth is our soundman.
In addition to our music we also distribute gospel tracts to help Christians in their witness. Visit Living Waters for details on the gospel tracts we use.
Our hope is that we will enrich the lives of other Christians and lead the lost to the saving grace of Jesus Christ through our music and testimony. We ask that you keep us in your prayers as we continue about the Lord's work.
We believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of the human nature, and that all are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ, and that only by God's grace through faith alone are we saved (John 3:16-19; 5:24, Romans 3:23; 5:8-9, Ephesians 2:8-10, Titus 3:5).
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved unto the resurrection of life, and those who are not unto the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29).
We believe it is the mandate of the whole Church to go into the whole world and to preach the Gospel to every living creature. (Mark 16:15, Matthew 28:18-20)
