Exposed to many of the harsh realities associated with urban life, I became a product of my environment. By age 9 I had graduated from drinking beer, wine, and liquor to snorting heroin. By age 16, car thefts, burglaries, and armed robberies had become routine. Before age 30, I spent 3½ years in state prison (for a crime I didn't commit).

I came out and became a notorious drug dealer, only to wind up a hopeless abuser of crack, heroin, and alcohol.

On Easter Sunday of , the Lord showed His mercy on me by delivering me from this path that I was so recklessly pursuing—a path that was leading to my own destruction.

In August of that year, I joined Pilgrim Church, a ministry located in the Brushwick section of Brooklyn. For the next five years, the Lord—through the tutorage of Bishop Roy E.

Brown—would prepare me for a future work.

On October 9th, , at the request of Bishop Brown, I moved my family to Detroit, Michigan, where we became the first members of the Pilgrim Church of Detroit. As Deacon of the church and caretaker of the property, I served in many different capacities. Over the years, the Lord would elevate me from Deacon to Elder; from Elder to State Youth Pastor; and from Youth Pastor to Senior Pastor of I Am My Brother's Keeper Ministries.

Then on January 18, , I was officially installed as the Senior Pastor of the Pilgrim Church of Detroit.
