This was a real nice surprise to watch on RUclips. Annie is a beautiful soul. I recall meeting her after a concert in the 1980's. If memory serves me, the concert was in Berkley, CA.
I am blown away listening to this interview! For many months I have been researching all that I could find because The Second Chapter of Acts was and still is my favorite group ever! I am 74, so they have been with me my whole life. I graduated from a Foursquare Bible College, with Jack Hayford being the one to introduce the group to me and my family. I have laughed and cried thru the whole interview, so thank you for this precious gift!
I remember around 1975 listening to the first album in my living room and I’d be on my knees weeping, encased in the Love…Annie’s voice has a way of making me long for The Love of Jesus. And that’s all I want and need❤️. Hearing these songs today pulls at my heart. Helps me remember the Love….
"encased in the Love," is a great way to express it. Her voice, Nellie's and Matthew's blending in too. Their music was the first time I didn't look to "idolize" the artists themselves but the One to whom they were singing. Today's artists could learn much from them.
I started listening to 2nd chapter of Acts in 1982 and 40 years later I'm still in love with their music. On February 28, 1987 (a Saturday), I had the wonderful opportunity to hear them in person in San Antonio, Texas. I met Annie and she was absolutely super! Nelly was also nice. The wonderfulness of that night nearly 36 years ago is still with me now!
This was so powerful. My heart is stirred when I hear of how God so powerfully worked in their lives. As a 61 year old, this was my music as a young person. It was also wonderful to hear about both the Charismatic movement and the Jesus movement. It caused me to cry out to the Lord and ask Him to do this again! America needs this kind of move of the Spirit again! Thanks for sharing this.
man, i'm totally blown away . that was the time when i came to faith in Jesus (april, 1973). the music from then meant, and still means so much. thank you Buck and Annie.
Wow... this evokes a lot of emotions for me. I was good friends with Buck and Annie in the 80's and 90's when I worked at Last Days Ministries but haven't seen them in nearly 30 years. Love them both! Thank you for doing this!
@@schwaaitalia they were everywhere back in the late 70's (when I got saved).....dozens in the Portland area (and most excellent elders and faithful saints)....there were seekers back then in these churches, that if they grabbed the mic today, they would blow the popular preachers off the map (and they weren't even in the ministry ..per se, just church goer's)....the wise virgin has slumbered..Miriam (pardon my rant)...here is what the Holy Spirit is telling me, "to tell you"...."back then what was happening was so many people were so exotically hungry for more Jesus, that local pastors were sorely confronted...deeply (provocation to divine jealousy)....the elders and leaders had to seek God or the young hippies would out grow them in short order. Or they (the 70's/early 80's ministers) would simply make it so uncomfortable for them to stay in the congregation.....they would leave
@@kgeiger61 Were you at the one in Tyler, Texas? My daughters' dad and stepmom stayed in Keith and Melody's old house in the late 80's and early 90's, Mike and Jeanne' Sigler. My youngest daughter, Leah, stayed with them the summer of '92, for her 12th birthday, and they sent her home with one of Keith's old suitcases. I still have it in storage, lol. I remember Leonard Ravenhill wrote and article in one of the Last Days newslletters about how God had shown him that there was another Jesus Movement coming with the young people, (I was saved in 1970 in the first one through the witness of a Calvary Chapel House of Miracles plant in Phoenix). That totally bore witness with my spirit, and I've been waiting and praying for it ever since. And now, halleluYah, we are seeing the fruition of his vision and so many others. 🙏🏻🙌🏻✝️
I first discovered the Second Chapter of Acts when I was about 12 or 13 back in 1977 or 78. I loved their music. In my high school years, I saw them twice in concert at the Denver First Church of the Nazarene. That church had a huge auditorium-like sanctuary and many Christian bands played there in concert. Annie's voice could fill that place to the rafters! Great memories.
They were such a blessing to me when I became a Christian in 1975. I still love it to listen to their music, after all these years. The Lord used you all so much through your music and lyrics. Greetings from Holland! Peter
They've meant so very much to me since 1973 when I was saved. Thru ups & downs for about 50 years! Golly, Annie looks quite the same, just sounds a little older. Beautiful.
Thank you Brian Mason and Anne, Buck, Nelly and Matthew!!! I'm a LONG-TIME fan of 2nd Chapter. I became a believer in 1972 - while in the Navy. Home ported in San Diego, I heard that Barry Maguire had become a Christian - and that he was going to appearing at a Church in San Diego (Skyline Wesleyan I think??). So a few of my friends and I went to the concert. I had never heard of 2nd Chapter of Acts before. When Barry came out and started his concert he had 2nd Chapter there as his back-up singers. It was ALL very anointed! And then... Barry let them take center stage and perform their songs. I WAS BLOWN AWAY! I had never heard music that powerful before - I was literally in tears. Watching your 3 interviews brought back wonderful memories of my early days in the faith. What a blessing!!!
So many memories !! My husband and I grew up in our faith listening to your music . Sadly my husband of 40 years, went home to be with the Lord. He had gotten Covid and died from the terrible hospital protocol. After 19 days , I was allowed to be with him as he was leaving this world . I found your music on RUclips , and I played it for him during his last moments .. he loved the hallelujah song you did with the children . I couldn’t find it . But as Richard was slipping away , another version of that song came on.. it was like a God kiss in a holy moment. Thank you.
My siblings had the footnotes and rejoice and how the west was one records in the 70s. During the 80s it was the album with the Omartian couple and then the hymns. Great decades of Christian music. Every so often I go back and have a listen. From NZ
Thank you Annie and buck because I grew up with your music I was only 15 or 16 but I still listen to your music and I appreciate your group The chapter of acts all of you have beautiful voices and I want to say thanks for your music I love it god bless you now and always love you all Ana torres
wonderful interview and memories. I still listen to 2nd chapt of Acts music, such a blessing. I saw them on their last tour late 80's. Hello Buck and Annie❤
I am so deeply blessed by the Lord in this interview. Annie , if you read this , I am so deeply grateful that when He saw you coming to that Shrine Theater where He showed up in power and waited for you to come forward to Him that I was one of the thousands he showed you in the vision He gave you earlier who would be blessed by what God was about to do in your life.You have likely only met a small number of those in that vision , but we are real, we have tasted the Grace of God and been touched by the Lord through your ministry to Him. I wake up every day to "He loves Me", it holds me , resets me and sustains me with increasing power in the Holy Spirit every time I hear it. I have left instructions with my family that This song must be played at my funeral one day along with "Receive" which is a match to my testimony sung by a Sister far away. Thank you and God bless you guys, please keep on singing your love songs to Him.
Nothing can take the place of a genuine experience with Jesus in the Holy Spirit. It cannot be run away from. It is timeless. And His voice continues to call to us...
I have loved their music for years, it is so good to see them in person. I listened to all the interviews and was so moved by getting to know Annie, Buck and Matthew and their wonderful stories..
Brian, ALL of us would LOVE to see an interview with the three siblings together! Maybe they can sing one of their songs as part of the interview! I am praying for you and for this to happen! Thank you, Brian!
These records provided the soundtrack to my childhood! I am grateful for the truth that was shared through their lyrics. Buck and Annie stayed with my family when I was a baby and they played in my little hometown. Thanks for serving God through your gifts!
Thank you for a tremendous interview. This takes me back to a different era of Christian music. To hear them tell of their roots and early encounters with God was wonderful. It is just as real to them now as it was over 50 years ago. They are still amazed by grace.
Thank you so much for doing this interview. I came to Christ in 1974 and the 2ndCofA were one of the 1st Jesus bands I listened to at that time. So grateful for their faithfulness throughout the years. 🤗🙏👍
This testimony is so good! I too went to a Kathryn Kuhlman service in Pittsburgh Pa that was quite an experience. Oh the early days of the Jesus movement in the early '70s were so powerful and filled with daily miracles and manifestations of the Spirit. 😊👐🙏
Buck was what I now know (have been there to see Acts minister), "the hidden gift".....even now, his capacity to perceive how God works and walk in it, is piercing!...quick, quick and submitted mind!
I remember seeing the 2nd Chapter of Acts in about 1974 at my school, Pepperdine University in Malibu. As a musician and singer-songwriter, I was taken to a place of worship that I had never been before. I had never seen singers raise their hands in worship and it was new and strange and glorious! Throughout my sometimes lonely years in the Navy, traveling to places that are in the middle of nowhere, 2nd Chapter went with. me singing through my CDs and boom box! Very memorable times in my life for which I am very grateful. Their story is just amazing.
Such an inspirational interview, I saw them in concert several times in the early 70s and forgot how wonderful those times were. I wonder if I will ever experience a move of God like that time in the world again. We sure need it now!
Sooo good to “see” you. You look the same to me. I still see Jesus in your eyes. It’s been there since the beginning at TCOTW. When Jesus cleansed you, He did a wonderful job! 💕❤️💕
I've discovered a few month ago the songs of 2th chapter of acts. Wow....what an anointing and HG presence. EASTER SONG is so powerful and special supernatural anointing by GOD ALMIGHTY. I can tell. 'Cause HG brings this song many times on my mind. GOD IS GOOD‼️ Praying JESUS MOVEMENT these days we're living in now. JESUS CHRIST IS LORD‼️🙏🙏🙏
I’ve been listening to Annie and Nelly and Matthew since about 1975 as a teenager in NJ, as a new Christian. Thank you for this beautiful interview. I’m a better man and Christian bcz of her music ministry. ❤
I started listening to 2nd chapter of acts back in 75 their music was so wonderful for a young 17;year old it always was filled with the Holy Spirit loved every bit of it ❤
Wow, this video brings back so many memories. When Buck mentioned Pastor Fox (Leonard Fox) and Pastor Evans (George Evans) during his salvation testimony I know that he had some great men of God who had imparted something into his life. I, like others have shared, was greatly blessed and encouraged by the ministry of the 2nd Chapter of Acts and Barry McGuire during those early years of the Jesus Movement in California. Thanks Brian for your thoughtful interview.
Oh my YES...my sister and i listened to them all the time...they were the most Amazing Jesus Band around! The harmony and voices are the most amazing I have ever heard!!! God bless you all involved in the 2nd Chapter of Acts!!! ❤😊🙌👏👏👏😁🥰🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love them and I had the incredible experience of singing with her when she came to the church I got saved at in Bethel Park PA, South Hills Assembly of God. She did the album "Here in my heart" I wish my CD had not broken 😢 😔
the roots of today's Christian music. I remember 2nd Chapter of Acts well, they were the first group I got hooked on. They were certainly anointed and gifted by God in their abilities.
Brian Mason is a master interviewer. He has done so much for the sharing of contemporary Christian Music in Middle Tennesse for over 35 years. I can't wait to hear the next installments of this interview with Annie and Buck.
I didnt know it, but I've been waiting for this since last year's interview with Matthew. And it pops up in my feed on a night when I am down day 13 of a very unpleasant virus. Precious Lord, what a tonic for my soul! I love you all dearly. Maranatha!
I remember being a born again hippie Jesus freak starting in 73, boy those were amazing grace times. Not knowing anything about the Bible and yet preaching to everyone I met in downtown Las Vegas no less. People getting saved, miricles left and right, I was blown away with what the Lord was doing. Now I am an old man fading away, but the Lord still remains. It's kind of like being married to my wife of over 40 yrs. in the beginning the love was new and fresh, but I love her more now than I did in the beginning, leaning on each other with mutual love and respect. Like the Song Of Songs, Leaning on my beloved. So it is with the Lord. Thank you Lord for The Second Chapter of Acts.
This is an interview that I have been waiting for, for a very long time. I have not only loved the Second Chapter of Acts for the genuine ministry, but for the great music. Never have a heard a band so perfectly replicate in a live performance the amazing sound that they produced on record. And what a hit writer! Thank you Brian and all for bringing this to me. I cannot express my profound gratitude. God bless you all, it is nice to know you are all still so alive and well. Annie, you are gorgeous as ever. Wow! It's also nice to finally meet Buck and discover what a fine man he is. I hope your families are doing as well as you are. I haven't heard all the interviews yet, but if you do a reunion record, I promise to buy it. lol Again, Thank you and God bless.
I HAVE LOVED THESE GUYZ FROM AFAR SINCE FIRST I HEARD THE 2nd CHAPTER OF ACTS ALBUM HERE IN NEW ZEALAND. THEY EVEN TOURED TO THE BRIDE HERE. I HAD MET BARRY. BUT BRIAN MASON, YOU OPENED UP THE WHOLE STORY OF BUCK AND ANNIE TO ME. THANK YOU SIR. LAST MONTH IT WAS MATTHEW, NOW THIS. THANK YOU.
Looking forward to heaven to get better acquainted with you both and to tell you how Father has used you all in my life and ministry. Bless you both.... really
Thank you so much for this. I no longer have most of my albums by them, but I do have "Roar of Love" and "Rejoice." I often sing along to those on my drive home from work each evening. I still marvel at their distinctive sound and divinely inspired lyrics. Their music impacts me to this day.
The 2nd chapter have always played a huge musical part in my life. I saw them in concert in Auckland New Zealand and remember telling them I may see them at the church on the way in LA as I was going there shortly. To hear their stories now I can relate. Thankyou guys for your faithfulness.
Great time of reflection and remembrance. Loved it! Always loved these guys and the tremendous impact they had on all our lives back in the day and still to this day. They would never remember me, but I actually did get to met them a few times. Thank you so much for this. Can't wait for the other ones to come.
So glad I came across these interviews,I grew up listening to 2nd Chapter and they are my favorite band,it was such a blessing to see them live in the Auckland Town Hall,my favorite album being Singer Sower.
Thank You So Much! Such A Great Healing Interview! In the 1970's I was in Lindale when Wilkerson, YWAM & Agape Force were having trainings and saw Andrea & Disciples first tour in Dallas at Bronco Bowl.
I just saw this interview-Kids! I didn't know this piece of your lives. Very similar to mine. I was at the Foursquare Church in San Mateo Ca and we (our 'team') booked your group to play at San Mateo High School-I'm guessing mid- 70's. Your concert was 'spiritually outstanding'. I had just returned from doing 22 months in Vietnam and was trying to find myself once again. You guys helped me...! If, I had one specific memory of meeting you-was finding out that Buck and you were an "item". (oh, well...I thought) He was a big dude! Hence, now I'm 76 married to the girl that attended that very concert with me. 3 kids-and 2 went into full time ministry via the Foursquare Church. Anne you are an incredibly memory to me! Thank you! Brother Rick, Twain Harte Ca...
I saw Barry McGuire in the Auckland YMCA and he was introducing a new up and coming group called "Silverwind" those music I also fell in love with,still love both of them and still listen to their music today.
Thank you! A great interview with them complimenting your interview with Matthew last year. Brought back memory of first seeing them and Barry about 50 years ago singing to a small group in Eugene Oregon. And then the memories of their music and ministry through those following years. Thanks.🙋♂️🏍💨❤️🙏☝️
WOW I'm so amazed and thankful to see this interview with Buck and Annie❣️ Watching this reminds me of how I got saved during the 70's when I was just 11 years old! I love the 2nd Chapter of Acts and I was reminiscing with their music on RUclips tonight! I remember all of the words to all of their songs and I still have their albums! I'm 65 years old now but I remember singing to all of their songs as well as Keith Green and others! No one could play that electric guitar like Phil Keaggy❣️ THE BEST PART OF ALL WAS THE ANOINTING AND GLORY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT ON ALL OF YOUR MUSIC! Annie and Buck, thank you SO Much for sharing your testimonies! This was the first time I heard them! The Lord is restoring, reviving and awakening all of His children! The Jesus Movement movie and all The Chosen series are also AWESOME ✝️☝️🙏🦋😇🙌🙌🙌🙌❣️❣️❣️
The Easter Song was so tremendously anointed, as were all the others, wow…
This was a real nice surprise to watch on RUclips. Annie is a beautiful soul. I recall meeting her after a concert in the 1980's. If memory serves me, the concert was in Berkley, CA.
I was blown away in 1973 and I still am. Never heard their testimonies before, so this especially blessed me. Thank you.
I am blown away listening to this interview! For many months I have been researching all that I could find because The Second Chapter of Acts was and still is my favorite group ever!

Yes, some of the absolute most amazing music ever ever made, amen!
"encased in the Love," is a great way to express it. Her voice, Nellie's and Matthew's blending in too. Their music was the first time I didn't look to "idolize" the artists themselves but the One to whom they were singing. Today's artists could learn much from them.
Me too
Second Chapter of Acts still excites as it did way back, stunning. Unforgettable.
2024.. and since the 1976 they still move my heart!!!
I started listening to 2nd chapter of Acts in 1982 and 40 years later I'm still in love with their music. On February 28, 1987 (a Saturday), I had the wonderful opportunity to hear them in person in San Antonio, Texas. I met Annie and she was absolutely super! Nelly was also nice.

Can't wait to see them in heaven
man, i'm totally blown away . that was the time when i came to faith in Jesus (april, 1973). the music from then meant, and still means so much. thank you Buck and Annie.
My mistake. I meant to hit thumbs up. So I corrected it. 👍🏼
Wow... this evokes a lot of emotions for me. I was good friends with Buck and Annie in the 80's and 90's when I worked at Last Days Ministries but haven't seen them in nearly 30 years. Love them both! Thank you for doing this!
U were with LDM...wow...did u know Keith?
Did you get to hear Leonard Ravenhill preach in person? I have not found a contemporary preacher even close to his caliber, except maybe Paul Washer.
@@schwaaitalia they were everywhere back in the late 70's (when I got saved).....dozens in the Portland area (and most excellent elders and faithful saints)....there were seekers back then in these churches, that if they grabbed the mic today, they would blow the popular preachers off the map (and they weren't even in the ministry ..per se, just church goer's)....the wise virgin has slumbered..Miriam (pardon my rant)...here is what the Holy Spirit is telling me, "to tell you"...."back then what was happening was so many people were so exotically hungry for more Jesus, that local pastors were sorely confronted...deeply (provocation to divine jealousy)....the elders and leaders had to seek God or the young hippies would out grow them in short order.

Oh Annie, your testimony is just too beautiful for words. I'm in tears with you.
Their music was played when my wife and I were early married and after 40 years of marriage, their music was prominent in my wife's funeral..
Peace to her precious memory from Ohio 🕯
And Washington state..
Thank you for coming back out and talking with us again!!
They've meant so very much to me since 1973 when I was saved. Thru ups & downs for about 50 years! Golly, Annie looks quite the same, just sounds a little older. Beautiful.

Her testimony always breaks me to tears. So powerful
What a blessing Annie, Buck, Nellie and Matthew have been to me. Always pointing to Jesus our Lord and Savior!
Thank you, Brian, for pulling this together for all of us who love that 2nd Chapter sibling sound imbued with the Spirit of the Lord!
Believe me... a true labor of love. I'm a fan/appreciator of the Herrings and 2nd Chapter as well.
Thank you for your comments! -Brian
wonderful interview and memories. I still listen to 2nd chapt of Acts music, such a blessing. I saw them on their last tour late 80's. Hello Buck and Annie❤

Very important people in my walk with the Lord, especially as a young person. Thanks Buck and Annie and all of Second Chapter!
Nothing can take the place of a genuine experience with Jesus in the Holy Spirit. It cannot be run away from. It is timeless. And His voice continues to call to us...
Thank you for this. I love the interviews, and it's nice to see the Dr. Z's amplifiers and Rickenbacker bass in the studio as a musician.
I have loved their music for years, it is so good to see them in person. I listened to all the interviews and was so moved by getting to know Annie, Buck and Matthew and their wonderful stories..
Brian, ALL of us would LOVE to see an interview with the three siblings together! Maybe they can sing one of their songs as part of the interview! I am praying for you and for this to happen! Thank you, Brian!
I would love to see it too. I don't know how likely it would be to get them all together in Tennessee at the same time. It's a great idea!
Yes❣️ I would love to see all of them interviewed together! Buck too with them.
I was there. There has never been a time like then. The pouring on of the Holy Spirit was precious. Maranatha !!!!
These records provided the soundtrack to my childhood! I am grateful for the truth that was shared through their lyrics. Buck and Annie stayed with my family when I was a baby and they played in my little hometown. Thanks for serving God through your gifts!
I LOVE THAT: Piano Praying!! ✝️💟💕
I just love Annie… she ministered to me so much at a concert, i was just gushing in tears and it just meant so much to me at the time. ❤
Thank you for a tremendous interview. This takes me back to a different era of Christian music. To hear them tell of their roots and early encounters with God was wonderful. It is just as real to them now as it was over 50 years ago. They are still amazed by grace.

Yup, i loved those days when we just spontaneously gathered to pray.
I had all their albums. In the early 80's they were the musical group with evangelist R.W. Shambach what a meeting so many were healed
Buck was what I now know (have been there to see Acts minister), "the hidden gift".....even now, his capacity to perceive how God works and walk in it, is piercing!...quick, quick and submitted mind!

Dear Annie, big fan back in the day and still. The Easter song I still play often ~ it is so powerful and always touches me every time I hear it! 💎💕
Incredibly great interview. Please consider writing a memoir. Brian, is such a good man to provide this.
Annie's song "The Master's Hand" is my all time favorite song and has helped me thru many a difficult time. Thank you, Annie. 💕
You guys are blessed. I was 11 when mansion builder came out and now at 55 I still listen to you. Know all the words. Such talented singers.
"and there are those that will never die"
Me too! I know all of the words and I still have several of their albums! 🙌🙌🙌😃
Sooo good to “see” you. You look the same to me. I still see Jesus in your eyes. It’s been there since the beginning at TCOTW. When Jesus cleansed you, He did a wonderful job! 💕❤️💕
Loved this...thanks!
Very real people with totally unreal gifts that have blessed us all.
I've discovered a few month ago the songs of 2th chapter of acts. Wow....what an anointing and HG presence. EASTER SONG is so powerful and special supernatural anointing by GOD ALMIGHTY. I can tell. 'Cause HG brings this song many times on my mind. GOD IS GOOD‼️ Praying JESUS MOVEMENT these days we're living in now. JESUS CHRIST IS LORD‼️🙏🙏🙏
I’ve been listening to Annie and Nelly and Matthew since about 1975 as a teenager in NJ, as a new Christian. Thank you for this beautiful interview. I’m a better man and Christian bcz of her music ministry. ❤
I started listening to 2nd chapter of acts back in 75 their music was so wonderful for a young 17;year old it always was filled with the Holy Spirit loved every bit of it ❤
Wow, this video brings back so many memories. When Buck mentioned Pastor Fox (Leonard Fox) and Pastor Evans (George Evans) during his salvation testimony I know that he had some great men of God who had imparted something into his life. I, like others have shared, was greatly blessed and encouraged by the ministry of the 2nd Chapter of Acts and Barry McGuire during those early years of the Jesus Movement in California. Thanks Brian for your thoughtful interview.
Oh my YES...my sister and i listened to them all the time...they were the most Amazing Jesus Band around! The harmony and voices are the most amazing I have ever heard!!! God bless you all involved in the 2nd Chapter of Acts!!! ❤😊🙌👏👏👏😁🥰🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The best ever!! I love your hearts...
I love them and I had the incredible experience of singing with her when she came to the church I got saved at in Bethel Park PA, South Hills Assembly of God. She did the album "Here in my heart"
I wish my CD had not broken 😢 😔
the roots of today's Christian music. I remember 2nd Chapter of Acts well, they were the first group I got hooked on. They were certainly anointed and gifted by God in their abilities.
Brian Mason is a master interviewer. He has done so much for the sharing of contemporary Christian Music in Middle Tennesse for over 35 years. I can't wait to hear the next installments of this interview with Annie and Buck.
Agree. Facilitator, properly engaged with Buck and Annie, never gets in the way. So appreciated
I didnt know it, but I've been waiting for this since last year's interview with Matthew. And it pops up in my feed on a night when I am down day 13 of a very unpleasant virus. Precious Lord, what a tonic for my soul! I love you all dearly. Maranatha!
I remember being a born again hippie Jesus freak starting in 73, boy those were amazing grace times. Not knowing anything about the Bible and yet preaching to everyone I met in downtown Las Vegas no less. People getting saved, miricles left and right, I was blown away with what the Lord was doing. Now I am an old man fading away, but the Lord still remains. It's kind of like being married to my wife of over 40 yrs. in the beginning the love was new and fresh, but I love her more now than I did in the beginning, leaning on each other with mutual love and respect. Like the Song Of Songs, Leaning on my beloved. So it is with the Lord. Thank you Lord for The Second Chapter of Acts.
This is an interview that I have been waiting for, for a very long time. I have not only loved the Second Chapter of Acts for the genuine ministry, but for the great music. Never have a heard a band so perfectly replicate in a live performance the amazing sound that they produced on record. And what a hit writer!
Thank you Brian and all for bringing this to me. I cannot express my profound gratitude. God bless you all, it is nice to know you are all still so alive and well. Annie, you are gorgeous as ever. Wow! It's also nice to finally meet Buck and discover what a fine man he is. I hope your families are doing as well as you are.
I haven't heard all the interviews yet, but if you do a reunion record, I promise to buy it. lol
Again, Thank you and God bless.
Thank you
And i remember i loved my Good News for Modern Man bible… i think i committed so much bible to heart through that translation, interestingly enough.
I HAVE LOVED THESE GUYZ FROM AFAR SINCE FIRST I HEARD THE 2nd CHAPTER OF ACTS ALBUM HERE IN NEW ZEALAND. THEY EVEN TOURED TO THE BRIDE HERE. I HAD MET BARRY. BUT BRIAN MASON, YOU OPENED UP THE WHOLE STORY OF BUCK AND ANNIE TO ME. THANK YOU SIR. LAST MONTH IT WAS MATTHEW, NOW THIS. THANK YOU.
Thank you, Harry. I think you'll really like the upcoming interviews with just Annie and Buck alone. -Brian
I remember that book, too! 🙌
WONDERFUL...FULL OF WONDER. Thank you Brian.
You KNOW it was my pleasure.... thank YOU, Rodney!
First time we were introduced to them was at a church called, Church On the Way in Van Nuys in the 70’s.
Amen, yes, Jesus comes to CHANGE us, amen!
I discovered your ministry in 1972. During my years of ministry (‘68-‘21) “Heaven came to earth” was always my call to worship choice during advent.
The power of testimony on full display here. Such a blessing to watch...thanks for posting.
Sooo Good! Wonderful! i love them.
Thank you both for your Ministry at a turbulent time in my life. Your talent and obedience are unmatched❤
Me too!
Looking forward to heaven to get better acquainted with you both and to tell you how Father has used you all in my life and ministry. Bless you both.... really
Thank you so much for this. I no longer have most of my albums by them, but I do have "Roar of Love" and "Rejoice." I often sing along to those on my drive home from work each evening. I still marvel at their distinctive sound and divinely inspired lyrics. Their music impacts me to this day.
The 2nd chapter have always played a huge musical part in my life. I saw them in concert in Auckland New Zealand and remember telling them I may see them at the church on the way in LA as I was going there shortly. To hear their stories now I can relate. Thankyou guys for your faithfulness.
That was awesome.
Ilovethat she plays “by heart…” amazing!
Thank you so much.
This is a wonderful interview. Thank you so much for doing this, Brian, and for making it so available. What a blessing!
Thank you, Linda. Believe me, it was a pleasure!
So great! Thank you!
Awesome!
I absolutely love this ❤
Yup, always loved 2nd Chapter, so “organic”, original and Spirit-filled.
Thank you for your testimonies you probably reached 1 billion people because of mass media. What a blessing!
I love this, amen!
Thank you so much to Annie & Buck thank you so much for
Great time of reflection and remembrance. Loved it! Always loved these guys and the tremendous impact they had on all our lives back in the day and still to this day. They would never remember me, but I actually did get to met them a few times. Thank you so much for this. Can't wait for the other ones to come.
So glad I came across these interviews,I grew up listening to 2nd Chapter and they are my favorite band,it was such a blessing to see them live in the Auckland Town Hall,my favorite album being Singer Sower.
Thank You So Much! Such A Great Healing Interview! In the 1970's I was in Lindale when Wilkerson, YWAM & Agape Force were having trainings and saw Andrea & Disciples first tour in Dallas at Bronco Bowl.
I just saw this interview-Kids! I didn't know this piece of your lives. Very similar to mine. I was at the Foursquare Church in San Mateo Ca and we (our 'team') booked your group to play at San Mateo High School-I'm guessing mid- 70's. Your concert was 'spiritually outstanding'. I had just returned from doing 22 months in Vietnam and was trying to find myself once again. You guys helped me...! If, I had one specific memory of meeting you-was finding out that Buck and you were an "item". (oh, well...I thought) He was a big dude! Hence, now I'm 76 married to the girl that attended that very concert with me. 3 kids-and 2 went into full time ministry via the Foursquare Church. Anne you are an incredibly memory to me! Thank you! Brother Rick, Twain Harte Ca...
Fantastic!!!!
Wow!!! Their individual testimonies are incredible...
That was a lot of fun. Thanks so much.
The 2nd Chapter of Acts & Barry Maguire (McGuire) were a huge part of my early salvation experience in 1973+
I saw Barry McGuire in the Auckland YMCA and he was introducing a new up and coming group called "Silverwind" those music I also fell in love with,still love both of them and still listen to their music today.
Thank you! A great interview with them complimenting your interview with Matthew last year. Brought back memory of first seeing them and Barry about 50 years ago singing to a small group in Eugene Oregon. And then the memories of their music and ministry through those following years. Thanks.🙋♂️🏍💨❤️🙏☝️
I think I have most of their albums they were a great blessing to me.
WOW I'm so amazed and thankful to see this interview with Buck and Annie❣️ Watching this reminds me of how I got saved during the 70's when I was just 11 years old! I love the 2nd Chapter of Acts and I was reminiscing with their music on RUclips tonight! I remember all of the words to all of their songs and I still have their albums! I'm 65 years old now but I remember singing to all of their songs as well as Keith Green and others! No one could play that electric guitar like Phil Keaggy❣️ THE BEST PART OF ALL WAS THE ANOINTING AND GLORY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT ON ALL OF YOUR MUSIC! Annie and Buck, thank you SO Much for sharing your testimonies! This was the first time I heard them! The Lord is restoring, reviving and awakening all of His children! The Jesus Movement movie and all The Chosen series are also AWESOME ✝️☝️🙏🦋😇🙌🙌🙌🙌❣️❣️❣️
First time I heard singing in tongues I thought I had walked into heaven....
Same here!
Love this!
You're just as beautiful as always, Annie!
I wish this was longer.
Her music is timeless worship and about our relationship to the Lord - the Acts 2, had the most beautiful voices that ever harmonized!
