After years of incarceration, it was the power of God in the life of Minister Demetris Burke that transformed him from prison to purpose, as he kneeled to clean a toilet in the wee hours of the morning; this former inmate’s life was changed forever!
He says “My mom would send me from state to state not wanting me to be stagnated…she was thinking it was location that was causing my defiance. I later learned that salvation had nothing to do with location.
My mom was a praying woman, a woman full of hope that I would see the potential that she knew was in me. But what she got in return was what she had in the beginning. A fool left and a fool returned."
Indeed it took more than escapades across the country to bring about the change Minister Burke so desperately needed and his mother yearned for.
It took an encounter and the fully manifested power of the living God. Now today, Minister Demetris Burke speaks all over the country imparting “A” Word from “THE” Word as he launches Word Fire Ministries. Once a month he hosts what he calls "Word Forums". Word Forums are environments where he presents an original piece of poetic expression from "THE" Word that he writes.
Afterwhich, he peels back the many layers of the meanings of words within the original piece, unveiling the revelation of God's word in an amazing way. His genius is in his ability to take the simplist of words within the English language and expound on their greatness! Isn't this just like God? Doesn't he take the little and make the most!
