About
I currently serve as an assistant pastor and elder at The Way The Truth The Life Christian Outreach, a role I've held for several years. My family of six and I reside in Charleston, South Carolina This is a beautiful place to live and I am proud to be part of a wonderful community. My eldest son is serving in the Army, while some of my other children are still in college and high school.
Living here and serving our church members has been an uplifting and exciting experience. We are active in providing Biblical understanding of God's word through Bible studies. I believe in the importance of worshiping God in spirit and truth. My role is to encourage our brothers and sisters to embrace spiritual worship that goes beyond the physical, focusing on the spiritual essence of connecting with God.
As Paul teaches, true worship is a spiritual offering — inviting Jesus to be Lord of our lives. It involves saying, "I offer myself to You today as a living sacrifice," or simply, "Jesus, I am Yours." This type of worship is not confined to Sunday services; it extends to our daily living. It's about living with integrity and compassion, aligning our actions with our faith believes, and choosing to:
- Offer a kind word to those who are struggling,
- Be fair and honest in our work,
- Dedicate time to help those less fortunate without seeking credit or acknowledgment,
- Avoid taking advantage of others or repaying evil with evil.
This, to me, is true worship — living for God every day, in an interactive way.
