Gary had a call to the ministry as a young man. He was preparing to preach and minister through music at Wayland Baptist College. It was during this time Gary became known as an accomplished vocal soloist.
But then tragedy struck! Gary was in the car with his little sister when they were involved in a major accident. In what would prove to be a turning point in Gary's life, the trauma of the injuries claimed Gary's life. As he laid clinically dead, Gary's little sister cried out frantically to Jesus to save the life of her big brother.

What transpired during this twenty minute time frame was Gary meeting Jesus face to face. He spent twenty minutes in Heaven. Gary was then commissioned by Jesus to return to Earth where he was to proclaim the Gospel in such a way as to make Jesus real in the lives of people. Jesus told Gary that wherever he told his story people would be saved, delivered and healed.

As Gary's little sister continued to pray, she invoked the name above all names, JESUS. Gary returned to his earthly body to carry out his new assignment. Gary has seen God heal leukemia, cancer, blindness, arthritis and deafness and other forms of sickness and disease.
