The
visionary who would become the pastor and founder of Perfecting Faith
Ministries COGIC and Perfecting Faith Church, was born in Springfield,
Massachusetts. Blessed to travel and live abroad as a child, Pastor Robinson
was reared and finished his formal education in Columbia, South Carolina.
He and lovely wife, Evangelist Dawana Robinson, presently reside in Blythewood,
SC.
Dr. and Mrs. Robinson are the proud parents of two beautiful children,
Blythe and Hunter. Elder Robinson graduated from the University of South
Carolina (Columbia Campus) with a dual Bachelor of Arts degree in African-American
Studies and Psychology. He also earned a Masters of Education (M.Ed.)
in Community and Occupational Programs in Education from that institution.
Upon completion of his Masters, Elder Robinson began his doctoral studies
at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, Illinois, but ultimately heeded
the voice of the Lord and returned to the South. After reestablishing
himself in the city of Columbia, he attended Lutheran Theological Southern
Seminary and ultimately received his Doctor of Education degree (Ed. D)
in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis in Curriculum Studies from
the University of South Carolina. His secondary area of concentration
focused on Exemplary programs in Education and Educational Leaders as
Political and Social change agents.
Pastor Robinson has worked extensively in the field of education with
a career that spans more than 26 years. He has served as an Academic Admissions
representative and Career Counselor for the University of South Carolina,
as well as working in all areas of TRIO Programs. Dr. Robinson has also
taught Special Education in the public school systems of Richland County,
he worked privately as an Educational Consultant, and has both taught
and counseled on the collegiate level. Currently, Dr. Robinson served
as an administration at Benedict College in Columbia, SC where he is the
Dean of the School of Honors and an Assistant Professor of Education,
Child, and Family Studies.
Although
Pastor Robinson has a strong commitment to education, his first commitment
is to God and the work of ministry. With an uncanny gift to preach the
Word of God with clarity and uncompromising precision, Pastor Robinson
aggressively tackles the tough issues that confront mankind today. Prolific
preaching and dynamic teaching of the Word of God have caused Dr. Robinson
to be a sought after revivalist and workshop clinician. Anointed with
a heavy prophetic mantle, Dr. Robinson has a contemporary flair for "cutting
edge" ministry in the 21st century. His visionary mandate is to stir
up ministry gifts in the Body of Christ, while equipping men and women
for Kingdom service and spiritual warfare -- thus bringing the people
of God into a depth of knowledge and spiritual maturity as to effectuate
the culmination of the unfinished task of preparing the Bride of Christ.
Along with the joy that he receives from shepherding the souls that God
has entrusted to his care, Elder Robinson has served the Church of God
in Christ diligently. On the state level he was an adjutant to the South
Carolina Jurisdiction and he also taught as an instructor in the C. H.
Mason Jurisdictional Institute. Nationally, he served as adjutant epistle
and special assistant to the Chairman of the General Council of Pastors
and Elders and as a Dean of the Leadership Institute and Coordinator of
the Minister’s Academy of the General Council of Pastors and Elders
of the Church of God In Christ. Currently, Dr. Robinson is a pastor in
the Harvest District of the 2nd Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction of North Carolina
under Bishop C. E. Anderson Sr.
