A Ministry that Touches Life

Welcome to ACB MINISTRY, a creative venue for making transformation real in people's lives. The basis of this ministry is relationships: relationship with God, others, self, and the world. If your are looking for a space that connects you more authentically with you, others, God, and the world ACB MINISTRY is for you. While we welcome people of all faiths, and even no designated faith perspective, we unashamedly present as followers of Jesus, and like him, we minister from the perspecive of the historically marginalized. Every day, we strive to fulfill our founder's life story as an African American, a preacher, and professional, whose lifelong journey has been a search for excellence within the context of personal and group safety. As a ministry, we are committed to helping others develop the necessary tools and resources they need to live their best lives, whatever that may be.

Driven by the belief that "ministry is how love shows up in the world," Our ministry supports and seeks to help you do just that, as well as affirm your personal journey and desire for societal transformation. Our preaching coaching services, specifically, offer ministers the tools and resources they need to create sermons that matter. We also help ministry leaders to lead from a more authentic place. Our interpersonal relationship coaching helps others take an active role in improving communication through genuine connections that are made and sustained.

At this ministry, our foremost hope is to add value to people's lives, organizations, and ministries. Our mission is made more tangible through an array of books we offer, which include The Folding Board: A Sermon Workbook on the Dialectical Preaching Model of Samuel Dewitt Proctor, Hope Us, Lord: Prophetic Invitations, Parts 1 & 2, The Evening and the Morning: A Liberation Primer on the Creation Narratives, A Ministry that Saves Lives: Ministry in a Challenging Context, Church Through the Roof: Re-Storying Your Church's Ministry, Give Power to the People: Revisiting the Congregational Enablement Model, and the popular children's book, For Children Who Want to Love Jesus: An Orientation for Children.. 

If you're looking for a safe space to learn more about the transformative power of the preaching ministry, and to become more empowered to be more authentically you, we invite you to call our ministry at (510) 619-6944 and start this journey today. Together, we can strive to create a more compassionate world, personal development, and how to cultivate meaningful connections. We are based in Richmond, but the world is our parish!
