He was led to the Lord in 1967 at a community park in Bossier City, Louisiana by a group called “Child Evangelism Fellowship” while his family was stationed at Barksdale Air Force Base, in Bossier City, LA, a neighboring city to Shreveport, Louisiana.
As a child, he was sick and delusional at night time. He would wander through his house in trance like state acting like a monkey in a panicked state of mind. During this time, at his elementary school he was attending special learning classes. His family and took him to a Kathryn Kuhlman meeting at Tulsa Civic Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. In his book, Winning On the Inside, claims he was healed at that meeting.[1]
