Pastor Eddie Seals – my spiritual hero

When my father pasted away in 1996 I felt alone. I felt that there was no one above me; everyone else was my equal. My bosses, my professors, my elders were people I could learn from. Yet I was my own man and I had just as much to offer as the next man. As I grew within my career, so did my pride. I eventually learned the importance of humility. I learned that regardless of how much of a leader or maverick I may want to be, I needed men in my life that I could submit my allegiance to. I sought out leaders and men of high integrity that I could mimic for my own continual growth.

After many years of a difficult search, I unfortunately found very few mentors that I could respect deeply. Every man needs a spiritual leader, mine is Pastor Eddie Seals, founder of the Church of Destiny.  Eddie and I grew up in the same neighborhood and even as a childhood friend, he always carried himself with strong intelligence and a record of making good decisions.  With him as my spiritual Sheppard, my strength is multiplied. He married my wife and I, and continues to serve as the commanding voice that evokes God’s grace in my life.

Everyone needs a spiritual guide…everyone
