Deceitful Intentions - From...

Gerard C. Cole Sr.

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Deceitful Intentions

“Talent is great, but having a message and a purpose is something well beyond.”
— Lauren Daigle

They were just three young siblings, lifting their voices at their mother’s hospital bedside while she lay in a coma. What began as a desperate prayer in song carried them farther than anyone could have imagined—propelling them onto the national stage of America’s Got Talent and introducing the world to Voices of Glory.

But behind the thunderous applause and bright lights, a storm was waiting.

Drawn to Branson, Missouri, by a contract promising their very own show, the family left everything behind—only to encounter betrayal, broken promises, and a test of faith that would shake them to the core.

Yet even in the darkest valleys, God allowed their story to shine.

Their journey of faith and resilience was shared by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. Christian Voice Magazine placed them on its cover. They appeared multiple times on TBN, were welcomed onto The Jim Bakker Show, featured through Bott Radio Network, and celebrated on Bobby Jones Gospel. Each moment was more than exposure—it was confirmation that God had called them to something greater.

Deceitful Intentions is not merely a story of betrayal—it is a living witness of redemption.

Of children who lifted songs through suffering.
Of parents and an uncle who refused to let go.
And of a faithful God who never left their side—shaping pain into promise, sorrow into song, and turning their journey into one powerful testimony.
