The band took their name from 1 Corinthians 1:27–29 "God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise".[1]
The band won the coveted Music in the Rockies competition for unknown Christian artists in 2000.[1]

After releasing their second full length album in early 2008, the band decided to part ways and played their last show in Denver on May 15, 2008 at the Gothic Theatre.
