Dr. Coleman has always desired to see men fulfill their
God-given role as spiritual leaders and still maintains that
conviction. Transforming The Minds of Men will always be
a large part of this servant's responsibilities; however,
there comes a time when we all must answer the call to
new seasons of ministry. The Lord's assignment for Dr.

strengthen churches to engage the culture and manifest
the Kingdom of God in all the Earth.

gospel recording artist, Tamika Patton.
Countless lives have been touched by this servant, yet in
this era, God is calling him to empower and inspire even
the more. Dr. Coleman is one of the premier anointed
voices being used to impact the masses and manifest the
Kingdom of God on Earth and he humbly and graciously
accepts how God is using him in this season.
