Bio/Notes: To whom much is given, of him, much is required. This is not only a scripture that we know from the Bible, it is exemplified through the life of this young man. Al Cherry (big AL) is a family man, gospel/hip-hop artist, youth pastor, motivational speaker, high school mathematics teacher, and humble servant of Jesus Christ.
As a child, music was an escape route into a limitless realm of comfort and joy to him. This medium was the tool that God used to draw him into a relationship with the Lord. He actually accepted salvation in his bedroom while listening to gospel music. Since that time, his singing ability became an expression of his love for Jesus Christ.
During his college career at Grambling State University, the Lord allowed him to serve as praise and worship leader for a campus ministry and a local church. After accepting the call of God to youth ministry, big AL became the youth pastor at Christian Fellowship Assembly of God in Monroe, Louisiana and has been serving in this capacity for the past 10 years and as praise and worship leader for the last 5 years. In 2001, big AL took on the role of educator. In addition to music and preaching, he presently serves as the mathematics department head of Richwood High School, teaching Geometry, Trigonometry, and AP Calculus. big AL uses the classroom as an extension of his ministry to be an example and role model to youths in inner-city America.
