Miles McPherson on Building a Diverse Church & Hope for a Racially Divided World

Pastor Miles McPherson played four years in the NFL with the San Diego Chargers from 1982-1985. In his second season in the NFL and after a weekend-long drug binge, he called out to Jesus Christ, accepted Him and stopped doing drugs in one day. Miles worked as a Youth Pastor in San Diego and enrolled in Azusa Pacific University’s School of Theology receiving his Master’s of Divinity degree in 1991. In 2000, he felt called by God to start the Rock Church in San Diego. According to Outreach Magazine, the Rock has consistently been one of the nation’s largest churches with over 20,000 people attending one of the Rock’s twenty-one Sunday services or experiencing the services through online streaming, and microsites around San Diego. www.ccln.ca/season2/episode28 www.ccln.ca/compassion
