When I was younger my dream was to become a Clinical Psychologist or a recording artist. I even studied Psychology and recorded a record in a Detroit studio before I entered university.

While a student at university I was confronted with the teachings and claims of Jesus by a music group from out West. I was a recording artist at the time and loved music so I went to the concert. At the conclusion of that music concert the Gospel was presented. Then sometime later I was confronted by an independent travelling evangelist who played the guitar and preached the Gospel. He bluntly asked me about my spiritual beliefs then challenged me to be a real Christian. 

From those two experiences I became a convert and follower of Jesus Christ.

Then shortly after that I was called into the Christian ministry. I did not want to go into ministry as I thought it was most unappealing. That was my image of ministers. I was also more interested in music and psychology and my social life. But after reading the book The Cross and the Switchblade by David Wilkerson I was introduced to a new type of ministry that emphasized having an experience with God. That event changed the direction of my life a second time (the first was conversion).

I enrolled in theology school and was miraculously accepted as a student. While there I had a Pentecostal experience and pursued fellowship with like minded believers. That was the third event that changed my life. This experience with the Holy Spirit gave me a fervent desire to study the Bible that led to my first and strongest gift of the Spirit: Teaching. I was able to read from the Scriptures and supernaturally speak on it with insight and anointing beyond my natural ability. 

After my experience with the Holy Spirit I became very enthusiastic. I began a street ministry of evangelism and teaching the Bible. 

I was given a vision of Jesus years ago showing me I would be in an ordained ministry of healing and deliverance. I have seen many healed and delivered by the Lord. 

Mark 16:15 Ministries is a ministry of teaching and healing bringing Christ's message to people today in the Power of the Holy Spirit. Just like in Bible days. Because God never changes.

After originally being ordained in a well-known historical denomination I transferred into an evangelical  denomination. As the years went by I moved geographies for ministry purposes and could not transfer my ordination credentials so I joined a smaller charismatic denomination.

I am now ordained with ministerial associations which afford me much freedom. But with freedom comes responsibility. 

• Conservative Baptist Association (now  officially endorsed/retired Chaplain).
• Assemblies of God International Fellowship (ordained).
• Evangelistic Messengers Association (ordained).
