The Fellowship Of Faith Church

 

Tell us about yourself

I am from Huntsville. I am the founding Pastor of The Fellowship Of Faith Church. We also planted a Campus in Madison, Al. in November 2014. My Beautiful wife,Kimberly, & I have been married for 19 years. We have a beautiful daughter, Tory. I received my BA from American Baptist College in Nashville, Tn in Biblical studies. I received my MDiv from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Ky. I have completed some hours towards my DMin in expository preaching. I also serve as a Chaplain within the Alabama A&M athletic department, I am an avid Sports fan and I love traveling and reading.

What motivates you to do what you do?

My Pastoral calling motivates me.

I love what I do. I love teaching the Bible. Sports are my hobby but Pastoring and preaching is my passion.

My family motivates me.

I love my family. I am a family oriented person. I love spending time with my family.

Seeing changed lives motivates me.

I love seeing lives transformed by the gospel. I want to make a difference in the community.

What is God speaking to you right now?

Discerning the voice of God is very important. I hear the Lord say, “Fulfill the Great Commission.”

He is really speaking to me to make an impact in the communities where our churches are planted, in North Huntsville & in Madison.

What does unity in our city mean to you?

Our Mayor Tommy Battle has coined the phrase “One Huntsville” and I absolutely love that vision statement. I hate the racial divide that exist. Unity in our city means no more racial divide, no more economic disparity. Unity means equality in the school system. Unity means economic growth all over Huntsville, not just in the West & South. Unity means no selfish political agenda and we are concerned about the good of all of Huntsville.

Prayer for our city

Father, I worship you & I thank you for blessing Huntsville/Madison County.

I intercede for HSV/Madison County that no weapon of the enemy shall prosper.

I cancel every strategy & scheme of the enemy against this region & we proclaim Jesus is Lord! I pray for Revival in HSV/Madison County. I pray for wisdom for all Pastors, Civic Leaders, as they lead to make our city/county better. I pray that all Churches in HSV/Madison County would be salt & light & further be changing agents for your glory! I pray Jeremiah 29:7 over HSV/Madison County!

In Jesus Name Amen!
