Pastor Antoine
The Origin Story
Pastor Antoine is a great person. He is a PK (preachers kid) so that came with its own set of struggles and insecurities. For a long time he couldn’t find his unique purpose or Gods plan for his life. He loved God but he was stuck. That all changed in April 2020. The world was shut down, the long 10 hour work days were over and it was quiet. Quiet enough for him to finally begin to hear the plan of God unfold for the next stage of his life. He began seeking God in seasons of focused prayer and man did God have something BIG for him and his family. In the fall of 2021 Pastor Antoine heard God clearly. Leave everything and move to Pensacola, Florida. Having never been, he had to get a map. As he studied the map God began to speak to him about a work that He would do in the Gulf Coast region. After serving nearly 30 years in Senior Leadership in ministry he had his assignment. God ACTIVATED him! In turn, the work he founded is to reach the unchurched, the broken and the stuck. They will have their moment when their reason for existing becomes so clear and they are ACTIVATED. The Life Antoine Brown is a husband, father, author, television co-host, business owner and leader. For nearly three decades he has served in ministry, alongside his father, Dr. Lonnie W. Brown, changing lives by teaching principles that connect people to a deeper understanding of their purpose. He has provided ministerial assistance to churches both in the United States and Central America. He has a passion to help others activate their purpose and buy their time back by overcoming fear and killing every excuse. In all of his encounters you can expect a bit of humor. Actually, more than a little bit…. |
