Pastor Stan Rayford
Stan Rayford is founding senior pastor of Restoration Fellowship Tabernacle (RFT) of Detroit. The RFT ministry focus is “renewing minds and restoring lives.” Listen in to Pastor Stan’s Sunday messages on Facebook “LIVE” – “RFT ‘LIVE’ @10:45am,” Pastor Stan’s teaching is biblically-based, often supported with examples from personal experience and enhanced by his use of “PowerPoint” visuals. Pastor Stan is the author of his recently published book “Expectation, Disappointment & Hope” which is available from amazon.com or barnesandnoble.com. Also, if you love gospel music and you like jazz you will want to tune in to “Inspirational Jazz” hosted by Pastor Stan on eamtradio.com, Sunday afternoons from 3-5pm. Pastor Stan often creates quotable sayings; and one in particular has become a charge to us as a church: “Think like a prophet. Work like an evangelist. Teach like a disciple.” Pastor Stan would say to anyone who crosses his path “let me be your pastor.”
