After serving as Senior Pastor of Wings of Fellowship for twenty-one years Pastor Johnson has transitioned into a full-time missions calling and has relinquished the pastorate to Lead Pastor Rocky Shrable. As Founding Pastor he is still going to call Ocala, and more importantly, Wings of Faith home.
Twenty one years ago, Pastor Johnson answered the call to come to Ocala, Florida. Pastor Johnson was born and raised in south Georgia and received his education at Lee College in Cleveland, Tennessee, graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree in 1969.
When he came to Ocala, he assumed the pastorate of a small group of people who were meeting in homes that called themselves the "Shores Church of God."
From those humble beginnings, the church now known as Wings of Faith Fellowship has a membership of more than 700 and ministers to our community and various nations around the world.
Pastor Johnson and his lovely wife, Annette, have been married for 39 years and have two wonderful children and five beautiful grandchildren. Their children, Jennifer and Jonathan, are both committed christians and along with their families, are actively involved in ministry.
Along with his service to Wings of Faith, Pastor Johnson has also founded "Honoring the Father Ministries." This missions organization ministers in many Latin American countries through professional baseball and various construction endeavors.
He is an avid sportsman who enjoys all kinds of hunting but especially quail hunting. Along with his quail hunting he also raises and trains his own bird dogs and leads many quail hunts throughout the year raising money for his various missions projects.
