John considers The Master's Men to be his greatest musical blessing, allowing ministry and witness in the company of talented musicians and Christian men.



Dale Carter (Lead)
Since his early teens, Dale has been singing and performing in Christmas pageants, choirs, stage plays and musicals. He has been singing Barbershop since being introduced to it in late 1990. A career aviator, Dale has spent over half his life as a licensed pilot, and now enjoys his flying position at FedEx Express on the A300 and A310 Airbus as a First Officer. He enjoys his time at home with his beautiful wife and lovely young daughter (she's The Master's Men's number 1 fan and loves to sing along on her favorite songs!). Dale is humbled to have been asked to sing with such a fine group of musicians and looks forward to using the ministry of music to serve and to touch other people's lives.



George Cherny (Tenor)
The a cappella bug bit George in high school when he was selected to sing two barbershop numbers from 'The Music Man'. He went on to sing accompanied music with the Rutgers University Chorus during his college years, and 10 years later he sought out a chapter of The Barbershop Harmony Society to fulfill his dream to sing a cappella again.  Still a barbershopper, he is excited to sing a cappella in a spiritual form. George and his wife, Peg, when not working, can now be found at the beach or skiing with their daughter, who lives in Colorado.



Robert Cox (Director)
A Wilson, North Carolina native, Robert has always loved singing. He started in kindergarten and hasn’t stopped since! Trained as a music educator, Robert began singing and directing barbershop singers while teaching in the Wilmington, NC public school system. A year later, he began directing the Cape Fear Chordsmen in Wilmington, and has been actively directing choruses ever since. Through his contacts in the barbershop world, he met Rudy Partin, founder of The Master's Men, and was inspired by his mastery of music. He worked with Rudy through chorus and quartet coaching and together they led the General Assembly barbershop chorus to the District Championship in 2001, with Robert as their director and with Rudy coaching. Rudy invited Robert to coach The Master’s Men for several years and, just days after the group's annual retreat in November of 2004, Rudy passed away unexpectedly. God's hand was surely at work when Robert accepted the group's offer to take over as our new director. The Master’s Men combines his barbershop experiences with over 14 years of church choir directing into a wonderfully, rewarding ministry. Robert lives in Sanford and is the owner and operator of Squeeky Kleen Window Washing.



Greg Flowers (Baritone)
