Joshua Sparks

Bro. J.O. Sparks was born on February 21st 1979 at Kings Daughters medical Center in Ashland Kentucky to two Apostolic Holy Ghost filled parents. Born prematurely and crippled in his right leg and very sick Bro. Sparks Dad and Mom believed God and Bro. Sparks leg was healed at 8 days old at the paramount arts center where the late Evangelist R.A West was preaching and laid hands on Bro. Sparks and God healed him. Although reared up as a child under the ministry of R.A West and although attending the United Pentecostal Church where he was raised as a youngster Bro. Sparks walk with God began on January 23rd 1991 by the side of His daddy’s bed where he knelt down and cried out to God in Repentence. In July of 1991 Bro. Sparks was called to preach in a vision where the Lord appeared to him and called him as a 13 year old teenager to preach the revelation of Jesus Christ and Salvation in and through the name of Jesus (Acts 4:12). Bro. Sparks ministry began in the Church of God (Cleveland Tennessee) in Cattletsburg Ky. After preaching several times to the youth group Bro. Sparks approached the pastor to ask if he could minister to the congregation and the pastor wouldnt let him because and this is a quote “I cant let you because your Jesus Only”. This was the greatest thing spoken to Bro. Sparks because he left and ran to the local United Pentecostal Church in Ashland where the late Rev. George O. Cumpton was Pastor. This proved to be the Lord directing Bro. Sparks because Bro. Cumpton mentored Bro.Sparks and helped him to develop his calling in God. Bro. Sparks attended there for 7 years. In 2000 Bro. Sparks was licensed with the ALJC and Pastored the Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ in Ashland Kentucky before entering Evangelism again and has been Evangelizing ever since. In 2005 Breaking the Silence International Evangelistic Ministries Inc was organized and became a non profit organization in the state of kentucky with ministers and friends all over the world. Together we are Breaking the Silence and declaring the saving Name of Jesus Christ to this world.
