Born and raised in Portsmouth, VA, I eventually landed in upstate SC because when God calls I move. I gave my life to Christ in 1987 and surrendered to the call to ministry in 1997. I am a three-time graduate from Liberty University and Theological Seminary: BS in Religion (2003), the MA in Religion (Leadership concentration - 2006), and the Master of Divinity (Pastoral Ministries - 2013). I have served as a worship leader and senior pastor in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia since 1996. After experiencing a divorce, God graciously gave me my wife, Jennifer, whom I married in September 2015. Between the two of us, we have 6 children. I am the Lead/Founding Pastor of Overcomers Church in Walhalla, SC, a brand new church plant that is helping those who have been overcome by life to become Overcomers in Christ. Jennifer and I both love people and long to see them enter into a relationship with Christ and walk in the power of His Spirit. I pray that these thoughts I share will challenge and inspire you to greater heights and deeper depths for the glory of Christ.

awesome idea!!! I’ll send you one.
I had a bad week last week. Family stuff. My older son is in a bad way right now. I have prayed and prayed for God to help me with him. He will send me signs here and there, of course. But Saturday I had practically begged Him to show me a sign, to tell me something….anything. I went to church on Sunday and immediately my friend and her husband told me they were praying for my son and he says, God’s plan is in motion, just trust Him, He knows best. I agreed. And then, low and behold, the entire sermon was about Him having better plans for us. Now, if that wasn’t a message for me, I don’t know what would be. Also, during altar call, Pastor gave another message. He said, think of the person that you want healed and restored and they will be. That evening, my son’s attitude completely changed for the better. Amen? Amen!!
Praise the Lord!
I had an interesting experience some time ago that I blogged about. Here’s the link. Hopefully, it’s what you’re looking for.
