SPIRIT & TRUTH MINISTERS

I was saved at 12yrs old, backslid for 4yrs and returned to Jesus at 17.  Growing up in an urban environment surrounded by drugs, gangs and fast living, I was searching for meaning in life.  Through Jesus I found hope and a strong desire to help others come to know what I had been given in Christ.  For over 2 decades I have ministered the gospel through music and have evangelized throughout the United States.  I’ve spent much of my time in urban outreach, juvenile detention centers and youth camps.  In 2018 my wife and I planted Pathway Family Church.  As a lead Pastor I now have the privilege of raising up the next generation of ministers.  It’s my heart and passion to take Jesus as far and wide as God will allow and even more than that to see others do it.  With over 15 studio albums completed I know that my time left in this space is short but through Gods mercy there will be others to carry the torch.  To God be the glory for His provisions and strength to finish the race!

I Was raised by a single mother in household with no siblings. The area I was raised in was not the best, middle / lower class neighborhood with a very high crime rate as gang violence and substance abuse were very common to see. The lord had used many near death experiences throughout my teenage years to show me just how real he was.  It wasn’t until the age of 24 where I was brought to complete surrender & filled with the Holy Spirit. This brought the change, not only to my everyday life but also my creative stance on music. Before this change I was a secular artist & wrote my first song when I was 11 years old & started recording at the age of 15. As I matured & realized how much of an influence music has, the Lord began to show me the power of speaking life rather than speaking death. My heart is to reach the lost & edify the body of Christ with new music that gives God all the Glory. The Lord has also blessed with a beautiful family, my wife that I have known since grade school (been married now for four years) & my son who is a splitting image of me. I currently serve at my home church  (Pathway family church)  in the area of Children’s, security & leadership.

I grew up in Church, and my dad was in ministry my whole life which really impacted my love for people… but i was brought up in a way that really put the focus on all my works. It wasn’t until I was 15 when God had truly met me. I always had God show up bet never was filled with the spirit until he met me with a moment with my dad, in the midst of probably one of the hardest seasons in my life.  I’m not the greatest talker but God allows me to communicate what he speaks to me through music much more clearly. And through the music I want people to come to know Christ on a deeper level and encourage people in the Fellowship God has given us! I married to my Wife Marian, and have 1 Son and lord willing another Daughter soon. I serve in multiple areas of ministry at pathway, being Media, Worship, and Children’s Teachings.

I grew up on "the right side of the tracks". Throughout my childhood, my Father was a pastor and my Mother was a Christian school teacher. I came to know Christ as a young boy and I wanted to please God, but to me that meant trying my best to be a good person. Years later, God met me at my lowest, delivered me from self-effort and self-righteousness, and filled me with His Spirit in 2021.  My wife Rachel and I thank God for the 13 years of marriage and 3 children He has blessed us with. We are grateful to serve together in the worship music ministry of Pathway Family Church in Fresno, CA. I view all genres of music as beautiful and unique tools meant to be used to express the glory of Christ and the testimony of His work in our lives as believers. My prayer is that God would use my music to draw people to the truth and bring deeper unity within the body of Christ.

I grew up in a middle class home, both of my parents were around and I’m the oldest of two siblings, a brother and sister. I was raised Jehovah witness for about 9 years and didn’t celebrate any holidays nor birthdays.  By the age of 12 my mother decided to leave the organization and she was disfellowshipped.  When my mother left the organization she decided to go back to her roots being a Christian back when she was 17.  She knew we didn’t know Christ at all and was convicted when she read a note from me when I was child saying, “thank you for teaching me the Bible!.”  In that moment she felt she needed to leave because deep down she knew we weren’t receiving the truth!  It was a struggle at first because I was so accustomed to the way Jehovah witnesses taught, not understanding Gods grace and what Christ did for us!  I was disobedient towards my mother not receiving the gospel because I was stubborn and felt there was no point to it all So I tried to disassociate myself from God.  One night, at 13 years of age, I was laying down in bed when God met me and touch my heart.  I began receiving everything my mother was saying to me about Christ and Christianity.  I cried and cried, prayed and asking God to be in my heart!  I don’t know when I was filled with the spirit, but the Lord really was filling me during the year of 2021 which led me to 424 Church where I attend now.  For music I really just want to glorify God, to preach his message and for Christ to be seen through it all!  If the Lord impressed on me to stop I’ll gladly lay it down at anytime!  It’s all for Christ!  I currently serve at my church in various ways.  Aside from Spirit & Truth music I serve in media, recording the sermons making sure we’re live on all platforms, and I also serve in children’s ministry!
