ABOUT HIM

            Travis’s passion is preaching and teaching the word of God. As the name of his church signifies, he is into empowering others. He loves seeing the results of his faith in God in the manifestation of his life and in the life of others. His greatest passion is serving Christ in the ministry of the word and in the empowerment of others. When asked what is he about, he is about empowering the saints of God in their spirituality, faith, the knowledge of God, education and economics. His greatest inspiration is where God has bought him from and the anticipation of the unknown and where God is taking him by faith. He loves this because what he can’t see naturally he can by faith and that is exciting to him. He realizes that faith brings the things into your life that only God knows and that is exciting to him.

Travis thinks that his greatest human element behind what he does is the empowerment factor. Being able to empower others with what God has blessed you with is important to humanity. As Jesus said, “Those who want to be the greatest among you must be the servant of all.” Helping others reach their goals in life is something that will live with a person forever. And living your life to not just to be blessed yourself, but to bless others is a high virtue and that is what propels him to help others. He sees himself as a transformational leader. And wants to impact the twenty-first church by helping to return back to the roots of the early church. And to him that is to be a servant leader and to espouse the true original mission of the church. That is to be a sent church going all over the world preaching the gospel beginning from where you are.

They say that he has overcome the stereotypes that people have of black men and people from the South side. And that he has maintained focus although he has suffered tragedies, personal hardships, disadvantages and has not made any excuses. Colleague’s think that he has great view of life and that he has done a lot educationally despite many of the disadvantages he faced.
