GORDON WHITE MINISTRIES

Gordon White has had a remarkable life. Here is a brief summary of his adventures in Christ...

In the small ranch and farming community of Decatur, Texas, not far from Fort Worth, Gordon Thomas White was born on June 20, 1941.

At the time of his birth his parents (James J. White and Mittie) had already been blessed with two other children - a daughter named Wanda and a son named Harlo.

Even as a young child, Gordon was blessed to witness first-hand, the mighty moving of God's power. Some of his earliest memories are of sitting on a church pew, watching people shout in the Holy Spirit as his dad preached God's word from the pulpit.

Gordon's mother passed away when he was only four years old. Mother White died, tragically, while giving birth to a child who also did not survive. The grief Gordon's father felt over the loss of his wife and child was deep and painful but the desire to preach the Gospel was equally compelling upon his life and that call could not be denied.

Gordon White spent much of his youth in church or traveling on the road to distant cities, attending services of worship across the country. Gordon and Harlo's sister, Wanda married young and moved away from the family with her new husband. This left Father White to raise the two small boys alone. They continued to travel from city to city with their father as he carried on his ministry. Sometimes sleeping in their car or in tents. Many times they bunked up with friends, relatives or anyone who showed them kindness by taking them in for a few days.

At the age of 15 Gordon and Harlo began their own ministry, apart from their father's work. They were very musically inclined, possessing a God-given talent that didn't require any music lessons. Gordon played piano and guitar while Harlo also played the guitar. They sang and preached their hearts out for Christ. People loved them and were deeply blessed by their ministry. They went from church to church, spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As they grew in the spirit, the crowds also grew. In no time at all they were filling churches and auditoriums to capacity from coast to coast.

After many years of traveling and overseeing churches together, Gordon and Harlo White decided to go their separate ways, each venturing out alone on the Gospel road for Christ. The pathway of Gordon's life eventually led him to St. Louis, Missouri, where he was pastor of a church for 15 years. For over 10 years now, Pastor White and his wife, Shirley have been traveling on the evangelistic field together. Gordon is still the senior pastor of his St. Louis church and he returns there monthly to minister to his congregation.

Gordon White has traveled to over 40 countries around the world, spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ. His ministry is most unique. People do not liken Pastor White's ministry to the more traditional ministries or clergy. He does not believe that a person has to wait for death to inherit all of the Kingdom and its rewards. There is no waiting for your "pie in the sky" - You can have it now! Yes, he does believe in eternity and spiritual "afterlife". He just doesn't believe what traditional churches and religious leaders have taught us for centuries. Brother White believes that the Bible is our spiritual book and we must learn how to read and interpret the spiritual language of the Bible to fully understand it.

We want to encourage you to order his teaching tapes. They will enlighten you, bless you, provide answers to your questions and calm your fears as you read the Bible. You may not agree with everything he says but you will never forget the power and anointing that comes from his teachings of the Holy Scripture. Pastor White wants you to dig into those Scriptures as you search for greater knowledge about the truth of God's Word. There is freedom and peace in knowing the truth, accepting that truth and walking in the revelation and blessings from experiencing what the Bible is really saying to God's children.

John 8:32 "And Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
