our faith story
Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
Faith Forward Christian Center is a multi-ethnic and multi-generational global broadcast ministry that originated in Central Florida. Faith Forward was born into existence in 2021.
The Founder and Lead Pastor, J. Slater, was led by God to establish and teach a virtual bible study to reach a group of interested individuals in different geographical locations. What was viewed as just a "small online bible study" was actually the beginning of something greater.
Slater has served in various pastoral and leadership assignments over the last 18 years such as launching new ministries, college campus church, youth development, community outreach, large non-profit board membership, and providing spiritual guidance at medical facilities. His leadership and professional experience also extend into the Engineering & Technology industry. He is known as a leader of leaders to many; however, being a husband and father are his greatest blessings from God.
