Biography:
Between the commencement of the Vietnam War and the death of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., his inspiration, was born this preacher’s preacher and motivational orator. Reverend Dr. Everett, overcame tremendous obstacles to excel and he believes as a result of his early influence of his grandfather Reverend Jesse Everett, Sr. and his pertinacious faith in God the obstacles were presented to him as stages of preparation for the work he was to do.

Childhood sickness in which doctors contended he would have learning disabilities and physical limitations did not in any way deter the budding will in this young man. He always believed that there was innate greatness in him. He believes there is greatness in all God’s creation. With this will, drive and faith in God he has been able to reach so many of the lofty goals to which he has inspired.

The prognosticated learning disability he would likely have was transformed into his graduating valedictorian of his high school class. The physical limitations he supposedly would have was morphed into basketball notoriety as he turned down basketball scholarships from Division I schools. He was always driven by the notion “if someone has done it, it can be done, and if nobody has, I may as well be the first.” He has authored “When God Speaks, I Listen”, and “Salvation: The Key To Church Order”, and is currently completing “How He Works”.

From the humble roots of a place called “Cross the Creek” in Laurinburg, North Carolina, which was known for its dirt roads, pit black nights because of an apparent lack of illumination, and the 70s life which seemed to exist in its primitive essence, Reverend Dr. Everett believed that God allowed him to experience these times early in his life in order that he might be able to reach others who perhaps had doubts about the brightness of their future.
He was blessed to have sober, sound parents who held high the banner of education and faith which he always reminds his congregants that parenting serves as a basis for moral and spiritual values.

He is a connoisseur of elegant and opulent living, and contends that class and dignity should never be compromised. He is the Senior Pastor of the Mill Branch Baptist Church of Fairmont, North Carolina. He was recently featured on the cover of “Church World News Magazine”. He is married to the Reverend Joan A. Everett, who serves of Co-Pastor of the ministry.

Reverend Dr. Everett received his higher education from the North Carolina A&T State University, Greensboro, St. Andrews Presbyterian College, Laurinburg, North Carolina, completed his theological work at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Wake Forest, NC.
