Meet The Band
Thank you, Lord God, for our family and friends who support our ministry and our
mission to do whatever it takes to spread Your word and glorify Your holy name.
* We are proud to have original songs that reflect some of our experiences in life and faith journey
as we seek God's guidance in sharing His word through music. We also play music from
popular Christian bands such as; Mercy Me, Kutless, Jars of Clay, Third Day, Big Daddy
Weave, Michael W. Smith and many more. And we also do positive classic rock music such as;
Jesus Is Just Alright With Me, My Sweet Lord, Spirit In The Sky, and more.
Joe Barszowski - Guitar & Vocals
Joe is one of the founding members of “Heaven’s Road” and is completely dedicated to spreading the word of our Great God and Savior Jesus Christ and giving Him praise through the music the band plays. Joe’s faith grows stronger and stronger as the years go by and gives due credit to his wife Diane for leading him from the darkness into the light.
Craig Moore - Bass & Vocals
Craig has been playing guitar for over 30 years. After playing in high school and college bands, Craig put the guitar aside to concentrate on career and other hobbies like racing sailboats. Craig also grew tired of the same old rock and roll and just didn't have the passion to play any more. After some encouragement from his father, a retired Baptist minister, Craig joined the worship team of a Baptist church and, as he says it, "I finally realized why God gave me the talent to play guitar". He found his passion for music again and now plays praise & worship songs and contemporary Christian rock & roll.
In his younger years Craig enjoyed the rock and roll of such artists as Eric Clapton, and Paul McCartney. Today, he follows Phil Keaggy and Michael W. Smith more closely and also enjoys Third Day and Jars of Clay. Bill Morris - Guitar Bill forgot how playing music spoke to him during his years in corporate Ron Bressler – Drums Ron has been playing drums since he bought his first drum kit in third grade for $15.00. He inherited his passion for music while growing up in an extremely musically gifted family. Some of his earliest memories are of his siblings and parents gathering together in the living room to play and sing gospel music. As he grew older, he took every opportunity to play rock and roll in various bands. Upon getting married, raising a family and building a business, there wasn’t much time to play for several years. Ron began attending Morgantown community Church a decade ago and, after a little urging from the pastor, Ron picked up his sticks with a renewed passion to use his gift from God to serve God. Since that time, Ron enjoys playing with several worship teams. He particularly enjoys playing with his son, Morgan, who also leads worship. Ron feels blessed to be playing with heaven’s Road. Some of his favorite Christian artists include: Chris Tomlin, Hillsong, Third Day, News Boys and many others.
Aside from the band he is the Worship Leader at MCC – Morgantown Community Church and leads the congregation in song every Sunday morning. MCC is another frequent stop for “Heaven’s Road” some of those Sundays.
Joe’s guitar playing career started at the age of 12 with his first band in 7th grade. He went on to play for a solid 25 years in popular club bands succeeding in playing all types of rock music and entertaining with passion. Joe now brings this passion along with joy to a whole new level in this mission to glorify the Lord our God through music. He feels the time has come to lift up our King using the gifts he has given and allowed him to enjoy for so many years.
Joe’s vision is hope that when the songs are played you will be able to turn off the world around you and open yourself up for the Holy Spirit to pour in like a waterfall.
Although working in "corporate"
Craig will always be grateful to his parents for their encouragement, support and undying love over the years. To his parents; "thanks for having the patience and faith to let me make my own decisions (right or wrong)".
The Lord led him without him knowing it to a church where he has been a member of the Praise Team for almost a decade. The Christian music really speaks to him. He is starting to understand God’s vision for him through his playing, and being a member of Heaven’s Road is exactly where he wants to be.
Bill would like for everyone who listens to Heaven’s Road, to be joyful in the music, hear the message and hear the wonderful word of God through the music. It definitely moves him and he hopes it does the same for you. He appreciates the support he feels from the Lord and his family as he dedicates himself to the music ministry of Heaven Road.
