Luke Powell Preacher

Get to know Luke

I was three years old when my mother found me hiding under a table in our home, eating a bowl of sweets which she had explicitly told me not to touch.

"What do you think you're doing?" she asked. "God said I could", I apparently replied.

God has always been central in my life! Even at a young age, I knew that I was called to share Him with others. At first I did this through music, travelling around to churches with CrossRoad, playing our songs and telling our stories. Finally in 2018 I said "yes!" to the call to pastoral ministry, joined the staff at eMseni Methodist Church as a lay pastor, and spent 4 incredible years serving that community and learning to shepherd God's people.

In 2022 I moved back to Boksburg to begin as the English pastor at The Church of the Nazarene, and continue my online ministry on daily devotions, music and more.

It’s a privilege to be able to do the things I am called to - caring for God’s people in a small church community, teaching God’s truth, and singing God’s praise!

I am married to Shereen and we are owned by two cats, Charlie and Lizzy.
