Recommendations
Quite often when I am in a missions conference, soul-winning seminar or just supplying a pulpit, I am asked if I can recommend a singer. I would like to introduce you to Evangelist George Bryant and his wife Ruth.
George is a great singer and sings in Branson, holds concerts and is in great demand for church revivals and other services. George has also been a pastor and friend of BBFI for many years. Among some of the songs he sings are: “The Old Rugged Cross,” “Where Could I Go,” “’Til the Storm Passes By,” “He Did It All for Me,” and “Restore My Soul.”
His singing and preaching will inspire your people.
Ruth is the daughter of Manuel and Mary Nevius, long time BBFI missionaries to Argentina. Ruth plays the piano and would also be a blessing to your people.

I have known the Bryants for several years now and consider them to be good friends and fellow servants in the music ministry. They come from Missouri which is a Gospel music mecca and represent their native state quite well. George, the radio personality, has a deep baritone voice that really resonates and a very able emcee for the group. His wife Ruth is their very capable musician and music arranger, while Carol is a budding song writer. I look for some of her songs to become favorites in the Gospel Music field. They are very entertaining and provide a pleasant music program wherever they appear. I recommend them for these reasons and especially for their warmth and sincerity. They are continually getting better.
