THE AUTHOR

Apostle Clifford E. Turner, Ph.D.

Apostle Clifford E. Turner, Sr. was a pioneering pastor and revolutionary leader within the Christian community throughout his 40+ years of ministry. He traveled the world for over 35 years spreading the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST. Clifford was born in 1950 and grew up on the South Side of Chicago with his parents and two older and two younger siblings. Afer returning from serving in the Vietnam War, Clifford felt an unction from the HOLY SPIRIT to preach the Gospel. So, in 1982, together with his wife, Co-Pastor Denise M. Turner, his oldest daughter and brother, Pastor Turner opened a small ministry in the basement of his mother-in-law's home.

This small ministry would later develop into a network of churches located throughout the U.S., Virgin Islands, Philippines, and India, which he oversaw as pastor. When called to preach, GOD anointed Apostle Turner to preach in a way that unified people through a common purpose. He received numerous awards and accolades for his leadership as well as for his mission work. Unfortunate to the Body of CHRIST, Apostle Turner was called home to be with the LORD in 2018. However, he left behind a legacy of helping diverse cultures come closer to GOD by promoting devotion to GOD, peace, and above all love!
