God changed Barbara’s life first. And
through His devine intervention, Betty and Cherie also were
“born again.”
The Lang Sisters In Stockholm
The girls went on to make several
recordings for Paul Mickelson’s Supreme Productions
label. The album, Singing Along The
Way, was recorded in Stockholm
during an 18,000 mile concert tour throughout Europe with Paul
Mickelson.

The Lang Sisters - Betty, Barbara and Cherie,
were brought up in their words as
sort of “good, psuedo-Christians.” They explain
that they always attended church on Sunday, had prayers at
meals and bedtime, but had no idea of what being “born
again” was all about.
Mom made sure that they got some fourteen
years of acrobatics, ballet, tap dancing, swimming and
modeling. And that paid off as they found themselves being
thrown into the entertainment spotlight and recording for RCA
Victor.
Television and top night clubs in Nevada
followed with offers of big money. “Starry-eyed and
eager,” they started climbing fast and furious in the
entertainment world. Even a movie offer came their way.
The girls decided they wanted to thank God
for their success by singing in their church. But the Pastor
surprised them when he refused their offer and read to them
from Matthew 6:24: “No man can serve two
masters...”
While singing with Russ Morgan’s
Orchestra at the fabulous Nugget in Sparks, Nevada, Barbara was
the first to see the world through the eyes of Christ: The moms
who parked their children in the playrooms while they
squandered their money away at the gambling tables, the effects
of alcohol on people, the over-the-hill swingers, girls who
gave themselves to band members--and the trio’s own
preoccupation with money and success.
