About
Spiritual Development
My Approach and Work in Lifespan Religious Education: “Even during my days as a Holiness Pentecostal minister, I was always in a position that advanced religious formation and education. I taught spirituality and religion to the whole range of life span from children to adults- even to fellow ministers.”
Worship & Rites of Passage
Examples of Sermons, Homilies, and Worship Music Ministry: “Worship is at the core of what I do and where my gifts are very apparent. Shared emotional, spirit-filled worship can heal, can inspire, can bring hope and joy in the midst of suffering and pain.”
