I’m from L.A., with parents from Birmingham, Alabama. Aye, I’m “West Coast Alabama,” y’all! My lovely wife, Osharye, and I have seven crazy kids (yes, count ’em) and ten adorable grandkids. Our kids taught us what life is all about.

I’m grateful and honored to be a Pastor, a College Professor, a Board Trustee, and a Writer. I’m a two-time graduate of Hope International University (HIU) and a graduate of Southwestern Christian College (SwCC). I currently serve at Reunion Church, The Christian Standard Magazine, Hope International University, and Kentucky Christian University.

I have over 20 years of experience in the social work field where I developed a passion for helping people help themselves. Although my favorite sport is baseball, I received a basketball scholarship to Florida A&M University. My favorite food changes each week, and I’ve read over 70 Star Wars books, which might just make me a Jedi. May the Force be with you. My favorite quote is: “Every man who stands to proclaim the Word should speak with something of the bold authority of the Word itself,” by A.W. Tozer.
