Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were
wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God
chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the
world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised
things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast
before him.  

1 Corinthians 1 (26 - 29)
The next time you are feeling despised of this world, remember these words ~
For those who wonder about the name of our band (some accusing us of evil),
here is the origin so that you may know the truth ~
I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and behold,
all is vanity and vexation of spirit.

And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly:
I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit.

For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow.

Ecclesiastes 1 (14, 17, 18)  words of King Solomon

Our souls are vexed by the sins and sorrows of this dark fallen world,
but we are not perfect so we also vex God, so we call ourselves ~ Vexing Souls ~
We want to give special thanks to the people who have supported us along the way.....

Ivy Voynovich ~ visual special effects
Wayne Richards ~ band manager
Christina Richards ~ band photographer
Dale Huffman ~ dj for Metal Pulse internet radio show
Jamie and Goth Dad ~ dj crew for Silent Witness radio show 88.3 fm WAIF

. . . We are the living dead, having died to our selfish carnal nature in exchange
for immortal life yet to come. We battle against unseen forces of evil as we wait for
the return of our Master, who conquered the Dragon and defeated Death.

. . . We are entrusted with a sacred mission to seek out those wandering through
the darkness and show them the way to their true home. Along the way we join
other spirit-warriors living in the shadowlands, revealing the ancient texts to those
searching for the Truth.

. . . Countless souls deceived by the lies of the Enemy have long ago forgotten
they are children of the King. They are held captive in the dungeon of Sin,
guarded by the fallen ones, Doubt and Fear, not knowing the King gave his own
blood as ransom for their freedom.

. . . It is up to us mere mortal vessels, through song lyrics and personal
encounters to rescue those in danger of being consumed by the grave and lost
forever to darkness. We are Vexing Souls.
