Reverend Davis responded in obedience to the Holy Spirit to answer the call of New Zion Baptist Church of Ogden, Utah, in November 2007 and assumed the position of Senior Pastor and spiritual leader in December 2007. The congregation of New Zion has found Reverend Davis to be “shepherd after God’s own heart” whose sincere desire is to offer high praise and worship to the Lord. The passion and spiritual wisdom with which Reverend Davis imparts the Word of God has significantly begun to transform New Zion and ignited our hearts to embrace the divinely inspired vision he possesses to catapult us to new heights as committed servants of their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. On a personal note, Reverend Davis possesses a solid reputation as a God fearing man who teaches and preaches the Word under the anointing of the Holy Spirit and is a very compassionate man of God. {% New Zion Baptist Church Mission Statement “We are servants of the wise and unwise indebted to worship, educate, proclaim and minister this fellowship of Christian faith until it covers the earth! “ag FOR YOUR INFORMATION: Compact Discs (CD’s) and Digital Video Discs (DVD’s) of each night of our Spring Revival Services are available for any donation amount.
