God’s Grace in Darkness
Hello! My name is Corey Leverette, and I am from Tennessee in the United States. I am getting more ministry and pastor training at the Christian Leaders Institute.
My Journey
God saved me in the fifth grade because my mom took my brother and me to church. My father was an alcoholic, so although I was saved, I didn’t take it seriously due to dealing with a lot of hurt and darkness. As a teen, I became involved in a youth group that was unlike anything I had ever seen. The kids were passionate about God, and they loved to worship and learn. I soon grew tremendously in my walk with God and learned so much there.
However, after high school, I went my own way. I searched out other religions and put God on the back burner. Furthermore, I made many mistakes, went through a divorce, and became a single dad.
Back to God
But God, being rich in mercy and faithfulness, drew me back to church and back to Him. I attended and served in church once again and got serious about Him again.
As I grew in Christ at church, I saw a need for a men’s ministry. Therefore, I asked my pastor if I could step into some sort of men’s ministry role to feed the men’s faith. We prayed about it, and soon, I became the men’s minister.
After earning a Bachelor-level certificate in men’s ministry through Columbia Evangelical Seminary, further, the leaders ordained me as the men’s pastor. I have been serving in that capacity ever since.
