About Me
My Work
With over three decades of pastoral leadership and academic service, my career has been defined by dedication, passion, and influence. As the founding pastor of the Living Word Christian Community, and a distinguished professor of Urban Ministry Studies at Palm Beach Atlantic University, I've been privileged to guide and inspire countless individuals in their spiritual and intellectual pursuits. I've also contributed to literature, penning impactful books on racial unity in Christian worship and interpreting the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.
My Community
My engagement extends beyond the realm of work, into uplifting the community around me. In partnership with Made To Flourish, I've served as a city network leader and founded the Power2B Show. This podcast encourages congregations to integrate faith into all facets of life, including professional domains. Additionally, the scholarship fund established in my honor by Palm Beach Atlantic University assists students of color in achieving their academic aspirations, further deepening my community impact. As the founding pastor of Living Word Christian Community, I have been blessed with the opportunity to build a vibrant and supportive spiritual community in West Palm Beach, Florida. Our church serves as a beacon of faith, extending love, hope, and spiritual guidance to all who join us.
Join My Journey
My journey, which began at the age of 22 at First Baptist Church in Oxford, Ohio, has seen me serve at several respected institutions and garner numerous accolades, including the Charles and Hazel Corts Award for Outstanding Teaching. Recognitions such as inclusion in the Marquis 2011 Who's Who in America and the 2004-2005 "Who's Who Among America's Teachers" highlight my significant contribution to my field. Despite these achievements, my most cherished ministry remains my family: my wife, Toni, our three daughters, and our beloved grandchildren. This journey of faith, learning, and community-building continues to shape my life and inspire those around me.
