Experience in the area

I gave my heart to the Lord a few months after being married during a revival meeting. A few weeks later I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and I have not been the same since! In those twenty five years we have only attended one church (Harvest Church), and there I have served there as an Elder for fourteen years. We minister in song with the choir and worship team. I am also the new member’s class coordinator, men's ministry director, and the Harvest Riders motorcycle ministry president. In 1993 the Lord called me to "...preach the Gospel where ever I open the door..." I have had the privilege of ministering God's Word to churches in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. In those meetings we have seen the Lord save, heal, deliver, and fill people will His Spirit.

Organizations

I am ordained through Harvest Church, and with the World Harvest Ministerial Fellowship. I also am a licensed minister with the State of Oklahoma,

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

To share with people the history of the Church from a Biblical perspective.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

The Azusa Street revival lasted for three years with several services daily. Under the pastorate of William Seymour thousands learned of the revival and were drawn to the meeting. They came together in worship: men, women, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, rich, poor. There the love of God, unity and equality were priority. Author Frank Bartleman noted, The color line was washed away by the Blood

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

Today, millions of people have received the Pentecostal experience of being baptized in the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. This truth is firmly established in the Bible.
