The Wayne Co., GA, (personal testimony) native was an old country boy, born and raised in South Georgia. I was a Logger/Trucker by trade, Jesus glorious saved me behind the steering wheel of a Mack truck on April 29, 1980. I accepted the call into the ministry while attending my first year of the Church of God of Prophecy Bible Training Institute in Cleveland, TN, in May of 1981. I accepted my first pastorate in April of 1988, during my pastoral years I pastored two churches in Georgia and two churches in Tennessee. With the exception of accepting Jesus into my life, the greatest decision by far was marrying my beautiful wife, Geri. We have two great kids, Tina and Chuck. They’re both married to the greatest daughter-in-law and son-in-law a father could hope for. Together they have given us four of the most precious grandkids in the world! I enjoy preaching and teaching the Bible, playing chess and playing spades. Most of all with them Grandkids!

Come Down From That Ivory Tower

Hebrews 11 has become known as the "Hall of Faith." The reason is quite simple. The writer spends a great deal of time giving a role call of the heroes of the faith. After all, this chapter is about faith, and what better way to teach faith than to illustrate with some real-life examples. Mos of the people in this chapter are well-known, at least by anyone who spent time squirming in a Sunday School class as a small child, or who watched the late-night movies on the local channels featuring their stories. Who were they? Abel, Enoch and Noah. Abel pleased God with his excellent offering, Enoch was so close to God that he actually walked with God to the point that one evening, while walking God said to Enoch, "we are closer to my house than we are yours, so why don't you just go home with me?"
