Meet Higher Power Products News & Photos
 
Higher Power Quartet was founded in 1996. The ministry has always been centered out of Des Moines, Iowa, although the members of the group  live in several of the surrounding communities in central Iowa.
The members of the group include Nate Bradford from Pleasant Hill; Mark Moklestad from Sheldahl;
Rod Johnson from Windsor Heights; and Steve Mickelson from Kelley.
 
     The purpose of Higher Power is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ through song to those who do not know Him, and to encourage those who do know Him to come to a closer relationship with Him. Each of the members has a long history of musical experiences. Higher Power has opened for numerous professional gospel groups (i.e., Bill Gaither, Signature Sounds, The Booth Brothers, Gold City, The Talley Trio). We have also recorded 14 CD projects.

Higher Power’s Ministry                                                                  
 
Higher Power has had the opportunity to work hand-in-hand with many Christian organizations and community organizations for the purpose of sharing God’s Good News and His love throughout the Midwest. Each year Higher Power performs at church services, special church events, gospel sings, community events, and private events. I am the booking agent for the group. We only ask for a freewill offering to be taken after the concert to help cover our travel expenses.  It is Higher Power’s desire to be faithful to God’s calling, but also faithful to our families and home churches.
 
 
A Higher Power Concert
     Each Higher Power concert is tailored to the specification of each organization. A typical concert would include anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours of songs, sharing, and personal testimonies. Higher Power provides the sound system, a multimedia presentation, and many other special features for making the performance professional and enjoyable. Higher Power sings Southern Gospel, Accapella, and Traditional Gospel music styles. People from all ages enjoy the special mixture of songs, words of encouragement, and words of conviction presented at each concert.

Higher Power‘s Purpose
 
      The purpose of Higher Power is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ through song to those who do not know Him, and to encourage those who do know Him to come to a closer relationship with Him.
 
“Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.”  (1 Peter 4:10-11 NIV)
