Season Three
Heart
The first time The God Squad is introduced, is in the thirteenth episode of Season Three, Heart. Their first scene begins with a meeting of welcoming Quinn back and to welcome Joe. After discussion on how to raise money, Sam Evans suggested that the squad should offer to sing vocal valentines or telegrams to their customers loved onces, since the New Directions decided they were not going to do it. First they sang Stereo Hearts to Rachel from Finn. Santana then asked them to sing to her girlfriend, Brittany, to which Joe was uneasy about. In the next meeting they discuss whether or not to sing to Brittany because it may upset Joe, due to the fact that he claimed to have 'never met a gay person' and he wasn't sure if he believed this act was acceptable in his faith, so instead he told the rest of the squad he would think about it. During Sugar's party, Joe decides that 'Love is love' and they do the performance to Brittany from Santana and sing Cherish/Cherish.
On My Way
After members of the God Squad hear the news of Dave Karofsky's suicide attempt, Mercedes calls an emergency meeting to pray for him. Quinn then makes the comment of praying for Karofsky's family, for they need the support more. When Sam wasn't completely clear on what had happened, Mercedes explained how people covered his Facebook page with hateful comments about his sexuality, and wrote "FAG" on his gym locker. Soon, Kurt joined the meeting, and after a brief debate with Quinn, came to pray. Joe confesses that he was the one to invite Kurt after his request. They then ask Kurt that they will plan to go see Dave in the hospital and that Kurt can join them if he wants to.
