My path to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ began in 1987 when I was “born again” through the anointed preaching of my pastor. My first divine encounter, a mystical interior message where the Lord said, “I AM real, My Word is true, I have suffered and so will you.” This “word” kept me afloat through the rise and fall of sin and redemption, like the Apostle Peter I thrice denied Him. I was seeking the world and its empty pleasures, not bowing in obedience to the King of Kings.

God is patient and kind, slow to anger and rich in love and kindness. He waited in love and mercy for me to repent and return to Him once again.

Like a sage of old, God has called me to walk with Him through the pages of scripture: I wept with Jeremiah in the book of Lamentations; lost it all with Job (my health, job, family, and home); offered up my Isaac in sacrifice; heard the cock crow with Peter; shipwrecked on my island of Malta; tended another man’s flock in the wilderness; remained locked away from the world in the pit of discontent (like Joseph); fled in the opposite direction of my call (like Jonah);

Like the country song “I’ve been everywhere man!” by Johnny Cash – I’ve studied the Scriptures on foot.

In a three-month period of time, I lost my health, my job, my children (divorce) and my house (to foreclosure). This dark season drew me closer to Christ, where I discovered a community of spirit-filled believers who took me in and dusted me off.

Today I have a greater understanding and sympathy for those who are sick and suffering. The Lord had to break my heart and allow me to bleed so I could be a greater instrument of peace in His hands. This is a setup for a step-up and promotion into the supernatural.

God tests His warriors first, then sends them out – two by two.

Although I began my walk with the Lord early in life (see My Salvation), I continued to make a few twists and turns along the way. I have had a number of profound mystical experiences in my life. My most recent was being caught in a trance and completely consumed by God. Just as I was coming out of the trance a prophet said, “You have the gift of healing, lay your hands upon the sick and they will recover.”

This was the beginning of our healing ministry Agape U which I co-founded with my wife Cindy.

I’m a graduate of Global Awakening Theological Seminary with a Master of Divinity in Ministry.

A three-fold cord is not easily broken; therefore, I remain under the covering of the following ministries: Life Center NYC, Global Awakening; and ISDM.
