A mere six years later, on December 18, 1976, he answered the call to ministry and preached his first sermon at Shalom Temple.

Mixing his gift of preaching with his music, for years he would preach in the hotel rooms that he and his brothers were staying in as they traveled for concerts. Eventually, he started a church in the basement of his home with seven people who committed themselves to follow him as he followed Jesus. Moving out of his basement was next and on May 27, 1989, Perfecting Church in Detroit, Michigan held its first official service.
