Jimmy Powell also known as Pastor Cochise Chops or Brother Jim was raised in rural Kentucky, where from the time he was 10 years old, he wanted to be a biker, a nomadic Harley rider!!! After being a wild child for many years, at the age of 25 Cochise joined a Motorcycle Club called the Iron Barons, which lead him to become even wilder. Though Jimmy loved the hard core biker life style, there came a day when he was pulled away from it. His mother had told a close family friend, that her son, Jim, would one day be a preacher. Her friend laughed at such a thing. Since our lives are preordained by God, the Lord did exactly what Mrs. Powell had said. He called Cochise out from the outlaw motorcycle world to preach the Word of God. No one would have ever guessed this, including the rebel himself. But that is what happened. This is Pastor Cochise's story. It's not all about him being a sinner. It's not all about him being a pastor and preacher. Rather this autobiography is more about how circumstances, from birth to now, molded and made Jimmy Powell into what he is today. A pastor, a preacher, a man who tries hard to be a godly man, but the truth is, "He Is Still A Rebel"!!! Cochise is the pastor of a church plant in Daytona Beach, FL called Set Free Daytona, and travels as an Evangelist. He is married to Bianca Canary Powell, and together they have 8 children and 20 grand babies. He received his Bachelors Degree from Mid-Continent Baptist Bible College, now called Mid-Continent University, in 1988, and is still pursuing his Masters Degree from another University. Yet he is content with what he has, a Doctorate in Life Lessons and Hard Knocks.
Autorenporträt
After God brought Cochise out of the Outlaw World, a great change took place in his life. Many things that Jim had been doing, which were hurting his family and livelihood, now were gone. The alcohol abuse, the running around without thinking of the feelings of his wife and children, and selfishness was taken away. Yet, part of him has not changed, though Cochise has tried to put it behind him. That part, even after salvation, is still being a Rebel. Now in his 60's, Jim Powell still bucks the system. Though God saved him from the world and worldly things, and brought him into a much tamer life, Cochise still today questions authority. Whether it's politics or religion. He believes in and is a part of the Black Robe Regiment, where pastors lead their people in knowing the truth about both subjects. Pastor Cochise takes a strong stand against ignorance and apathy from his pulpit, as he tries to educate his hearers on both subjects of politics and Christianity and how they have weakened the church. Politicians have spun the Constitution to make it sound as Christianity is wrong, while these tyrants appear to support Socialism, Humanism, Secularism, Islam and any other thinking that goes against the teachings of Jesus Christ. Jim Powell whole heartedly believes that American pulpits and it's pastors have become more like "spiritual cheerleaders" than men who preach with power. He feels that most preachers today have traded off the power of God for a free place to live and a pay check. Though Jim pastors, he is also a traveling Evangelist. He has spoken in 100's of churches across America, as well as in prisons, jails, schools and tent revivals. His purpose is to stir the people up in the church, not to tear it up. Men like Brother Powell are becoming far and few between. If you want a man that can preach from the heart or what he calls "gut" preaching, this is your man. Enjoy his story, and look forward to his next book titled; "Godly Men". "You Don't Have To Give Up Your Man Card To Come To Jesus Or To Church"!!!
