Higher Hope welcomes Amber Barkley

Amber Barkley and family

Higher Hope is very excited to announce the addition of Amber Barkley to the group. They welcomed Amber, her husband Joel and their three beautiful children, Anna, Kailyn and Stephen, into the ministry in October 2015.
The Barkley family currently resides in Anniston, AL. Amber has been involved with singing and ministering nearly all of her life and she brings not only a wonderful singing voice to the group but songwriting talent and musicianship as well.

When asked about the transition to Higher Hope, Amber stated: “While seeking to move forward in the call of God and to share with many others the songs the Lord has given me, I began asking God to show me His will and through which avenue He would have me to do so. I put my faith to action and decided to attend an audition where I was introduced to Danny and Jenna Byers of Higher Hope. I was impressed with their song ‘All The Way,’ and it began to hold a special meaning in my heart. When the opportunity arose to join and become a member of the ministry, my husband and I began seeking the Lord for His direction and through His words of assurance and confirmation we joyfully accepted the invitation and are ecstatic about what the future holds as God guides!”

“Amber brings a dynamic to this group that we have never had before,” shares group member Jenna Byers. “The peace of God came with this decision and that means so much! We thank Him for answering our prayers and sending us such a committed and ministry-minded couple. Joel is a great asset and serves just about anywhere he is needed, and Amber is definitely talented, but her anointing is even more special. She blesses us every time we hear her, so it’s exciting to know we can share that blessing now wherever we go to minister.”

Higher Hope covets your prayers throughout this transition. Plans for a new project are being made and the group hopes to be in the studio by the first of the year. Bookings for 2016 can be scheduled by calling 706-402-2257

Lamp Music Recording Artists, Higher Hope, based in LaGrange, GA welcome baritone vocalist, Jamie Daniel of Trickum Valley, AL. Higher Hope, now in their 9th year of ministry, had been searching for the right person to fill the vacancy of their previous baritone vocalist. “Jamie was gracious enough to fill in with us when we were in need of someone. We didn’t foresee then, that The Lord was moving in this direction. Jamie had been dedicated to his family’s ministry, Tri-City Quartet, for over 20 years.” -Group Owner, Jenna Byers.

“When my family decided to come off the road earlier this year, I knew I still had a calling to travel & sing. The Lord had a place prepared for me to continue with these folks that were already like family to me.” -Jamie Daniel

Higher Hope is excited about the new addition & they are currently reviewing material in order to return to the recording studio this fall.
