ABOUT CHARLES

In 1995 while still Pastoring, we ministered at a Youth Revival in Roland, Oklahoma where we saw a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit through salvations, healings, and growth. This meeting set the stage for what was going to be the greatest journey of our lives and eventually I would become the Lead Apostle of Gateway Church.

Over these many years, God has allowed me to witness and perform some of the greatest miracles and I never get used to the sheer awesomeness and love the Father shows to us through healings and the miraculous. Some of my favorites are; A young man healed of Leukemia (I saw him years later with his child praising God), Barren women having babies (Moms tagging me in posts as these babies grow up), A woman’s face twisted with Bell’s Palsy straightened (In front of over 200 people). While these are some of my favorites, I also love the times a Prophetic Word was given to an individual and it changed their lives. One of my favorites was when an elderly couple came to me after a message I preached and said they had money that was denied them over the years and wondered if God wanted them to go after it again. I told them YES! After years of denial, a few short months later all was restored to them and allowed them to purchase their FIRST home! God is so good friends.

EARLY YEARS

I grew up in a Christian home where both my parents ministered and Pastored. We grew up very poor but with a lot of love in our house. Even though I grew up in a home where God was first, I did not always put Him first or passionately pursue Him. My early teenage years were a time filled with rebellion and a lot of mistakes.

It was at the end of my High School years when I for the first time encountered the Lord for myself and heard His voice. The Father spoke to me literally and my mind was changed, and He turned my mistakes and failures into ministry. It was also at this time that I met Khristi and we were married 3 years later. These events changed my life and set in motion a journey that I am happily still on today

CAMERON

In 1993 I began Pastoring a little Church in the town of Cameron I grew up in. I still look back with fond memories of seeing my wife and I learning music, putting together events and my little girl singing in the Children’s Choir; as well as worshipping with all the familiar faces I grew up around. God knew what He was doing. It was in this small place that we saw great miracles, healings and God’s Hand upon our lives.
