Congratulations!Pastor & First Lady of The Month
For
March & AprilBishop Charles L. Norris, Jr.
&
First Lady Nettie Norris
BISHOP CHARLES L. NORRIS, JR.
BIOGRAPHY
The youngest of two sons, Min. Keith Alexander being the oldest, of the Rev. Dr. Charles & Ruby Norris, Rev. Norris is the father of two wonderful sons – Charles III and Jason K. As a young child, he attended First Baptist Church of Far Rockaway, where the late Rev. H. Oliver Scott was Pastor. While attending Sunday school, he began to find great interest in reading the word of God, either from the Sunday school lesson or the Bible. It was in the word of God where he found his sanctuary. Particularly in the story of the crucifixion. Here was the place where God introduced him to salvation. It is here that God met him in his heart and where Jesus Christ became a part of his life forever. At the tender age of 14yrs., Bishop Norris believed and confessed that Jesus is Lord. Thus began his Christian journey of transformation.
Bishop Norris graduated from Tuskegee University in Tuskegee, Alabama in May, 1977. There he earned his Bachelor of Science Degree in Health and Physical Education. Upon returning home, he joined the Bethesda Missionary Baptist Church, where (his dad) the Rev. Dr. Charles L. Norris Sr. had been called to Pastor. There, he began to develop more of the ministry that God had place inside him since before his birth. His journey took him away from Bethesda for a period to serve others and to grow in the grace of Jesus Christ.
Through this time Bishop Norris worked for the United States Postal Service for 31 years and retired December 31, 2010. He has ministered/managed offices in Arverne, Rockaway Park, Rockaway Beach, Inwood and Far Rockaway.
As he journeyed through different ministries/churches, such as Freewheel Baptist Church, Brooks Memorial United Methodist Church, New Covenant Church of Christ (Baptist), and the St. Johns Baptist Church of Inwood (Twice), it was at St. John where he found refuge in the spirit of God. While serving as a musician at the St. Johns Baptist Church, he decided to unite with the church, under Christian experience. He began attending the Sunday school and later became a well loved teacher. Bishop Norris answered the call to preach the gospel in August of 1998 and was licensed to preach on January 29, 1999 under the Pastorate of the Rev. Gregory K. Stanislaus. In June of 1999, Bishop Norris was appointed and hired as the Minister of Music of the St. Johns Baptist Church. Between the preaching and music ministry, God was now molding his servant for His ministry. After his successful completion of his examination for ordination by the Eastern Baptist Association, Rev. Norris was ordained on September 15, 2002. While in service at the St. Johns Baptist Church, the Lord Jesus Christ dropped a diamond into the life of Bishop Norris in the person of Nettie Vermelle Barnes. Along with her and son Minister Sean Hall, God created an extended family of love and ministry. They were united in Holy Matrimony on April 29, 2003. This ceremony was conducted by the Rev. Dr. Charles L. Norris Sr. with Rev. Gregory K. Stanislaus and First Lady Ruth Stanislaus as Best Man and Maid of Honor.
Bishop Norris the received the call from the Lord to return to Bethesda Missionary Baptist Church, where he entered this ministry as the Assistant Pastor. And for the past eight years he and his mate have served this congregation with diligence and spiritual intensity. In 2005 Bishop Norris was unanimously voted in as Co-Pastor of Bethesda. On September 13, 2009, Co-Pastor Norris was presented with an Honorary Doctorate of Divinity Degree by, The Anointed by God Ministry Alliance and Seminary. On February 7, 2010, Pastor Norris Sr. requested in a written statement, that he now become Pastor Emeritus and that Rev. Dr. Charles L. Norris Jr. be moved into the position of Senior Pastor of Bethesda Missionary Baptist Church. The congregation voted and accepted Pastor Norris Sr.’s request and Rev. Norris Jr. moved into the official office of Pastor. On June 19, 2010, Pastor Norris Jr. was consecrated as Bishop Charles L. Norris Jr. by Chief Prelate Anthony Perry Jr., of Grace Saving Ministry Inc.
God is truly the Architect and Finisher of our faith. Bishop Norris truly believes the we are just instruments in God’s hands and that if we let Him be in control, all thing will work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
For as Bishop Norris’ favorite scripture says” For I am persuaded, that neither death, no life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things, to come, nor height, nor depth, nor another creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God , which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:35-39.

Editorial Comments
By: Editor In ChiefI was privileged to have conversed with Rev. Dr. Bailey's assistant when she contacted me to confirm that he would be delighted to be featured.
It’s very rare I’m afforded the opportunity to pen an editorial piece other than an interview with an artist, religious figure or music icon but deemed it necessary on this occasion.
I am Baptipentestolic as it relates to denomination. When I heard Rev. Dr. Bertrand Bailey, Jr. minister, I danced and praised God so much I thought I had lost one of my toes. LOL
Bishops, Pastors & Religious Leaders, Spring is upon us and if you have been seeking the Lord as to whom should be the elect to share in revival with your congregation, Rev. Dr. Bertand Bailey, Jr. would be a great choice!
I am not affiliated with his PR team but we are all in the same family. The Body of Christ. He is worth praying about, listening to and inviting to your church/ministry to be a blessing to yourself and your congregation .
Pastor Bailey administers the Word via 50 revivals per year. He is a very sought-after voice in the Gospel arena, yet he's tangible..
I am sure you will be blessed and I believe it’s time for the Texas Tornado to meet New York City and the surrounding areas (Connecticut, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, etc.)
Contact Pastor Bertrand Bailey, Jr. at:
(Please note that what you SEE on Youtube, you will get IN PERSON) and then some. To God be the Glory!!!

Re:

The Top 12 Reasons Why
Gospel Artists Go Broke
By: James L. Walker, Jr. Esq.
Kirk Franklin wrote a mega song once that asked, “Why Do We Sing?
With over 100 gospel albums released since that 1993 Grammy winning song and album, I’m still asking why are gospel artists singing and making CDs when seemingly only 5-10 are really making money to survive on as a person.
In nearly 20 years, I have worked with practically every major gospel artist on the planet in some shape or form, whether promoting a concert featuring them, managing them, administering their publishing or obviously, serving as their legal counsel.
I have noticed one common trend: that while we have some well known names who are doing a lot of damage (i.e., making a ton of money), like Marvin Sapp, John P. Kee, Yolanda Adams, Donald Lawrence, Donnie McClurkin, CeCe Winans, Fred Hammond and of course, Kirk Franklin, there are 99% that never see an actual royalty check from their record sales and to be frank, are really struggling financially.
We have 99% of the so-called “national gospel artists” or “international gospel artists” (depending on how they describe themselves on the press release) struggling to pay the mortgage, car note or rent.
So I asked why are we (STILL) singing? Specifically, why are we making CDs and then I realized many of the gospel artists probably don’t know why they are struggling or broke.
I gathered 12 Top Reasons for this struggle.
But before I state them, I am aware that gospel artists or “church folk” always like you to give some Biblical or “spiritual” foundation or “exegesis” before you sound off in an article like this.
So before reading the list below (if you need too have a Biblical backdrop), know that in biblical terms, the number 12 is symbolic for perfection. Some say 12 is the product of 3 (the perfectly divine and heavenly number) and 4 (the earthly, i.e., the number of what is material and organic).
There were 12 patriarchs in the Old Testament from Shem (the son of Noah) to Jacob.
In wise leader Solomon’s reign, the number 12 was the predominating factor vs. the number 5 in the tabernacle.
In the New Testament it is no different: 12 Apostles; 12 Foundations in the Heavenly Jerusalem; the 12 Gates; the 12 Pearls; and the 12 angels.
There are 12 months in a year. And, if all of that is not “deep” enough for some reading this article, my grandfather had 12 kids (which is significant enough for me)!
Now that we have laid the foundation and gotten that out of the way for “church folk”, here are the THE TOP 12 REASONS GOSPEL ARTISTS GO BROKE: (among many more):
1. They TRUST Jesus & Anyone Who Uses The Name of “Jesus” to Convince Them Not to Read Their Contracts or Hire Good Representation;
2. They PRAY Daily, But Won’t READ Daily;
3. They Sing and Shout Day and Night, But Never Listen Morning or Evening;
4. They Keep Hiring A Choir Member or Deacon From Their Church to “play” Manager;
5. They Like New Shoes More Than New Money;
6. They Overprice Themselves Out of The Market and Don’t Understand the Changes in the Marketplace;
7. They Won’t Read ANY Contracts, Even the Sprint Contract, then Cry “Satan is a Liar”, When The Phone Is Shut Off;
8. They Love a High Profile Nice Big Car, vs. a Nice Low Profile Large Bank Account;
9. They’ll Listen to Their Pastor’s Advice Before They’ll Listen to Their Attorney, Manager or Accountant;
10. They Don’t Realize Jesus Wept Because He Knew A Generation would Sing and Never Get Paid Until They Read Their Contracts Like they Read the Bible and Pray Daily;
11. They Don’t Understand a Point, Publishing or Statutory Rates; and
12. Like All Artists, They Want To Be A “Star” For All The Wrong Reasons! But They Even Wrongly Feel Jesus “Called Them” To Just Sing And Not Worry or Care About Business.
Let me explain a little about some of these reasons that are not obvious.
About 5 years ago, a gospel artists told me don’t “worry about the contract, me and the label president went to church together, he’s a Man of God.”
I wasn’t worried about the “God” in that statement, I was worried about the “Man”, i.e., flesh. Gospel artists often feel because an executive knows Jesus or comes to church with them or has a “come to Jesus” moment with them, that this executive could never send them a one-sided contract.
WRONG! Matter of fact, in those cases of someone “bonding” with you that much, please read the contract even closer and avoid the pitfalls of Top Reason #1 above.
Also, my Grandfather was always a man of prayer, but he also taught me don’t be so heavenly minded that you are no earthly good. When an artist spends all day praying, but refuses to spend anytime reading (Reason #2 above) books like “All You Need to Know About the Music Business” by Donald Passman or Kashif’s Book, “Everything You Better Know About The Record Industry”, he has done himself no “earthly” good in terms of protecting himself.
I appreciate Donald Lawrence tweeting my book from time-to-time, “This Business of Urban Music” (Random House/Billboard Books), and just pray people or rather gospel artists go buy the book. But, being a former President of the Stellar Awards Board, I often took copies of my books to our annual Stellar Awards and gave them out, but some artists still would not read.
And per Reason #4 above, realize you can’t have Pookie and Ray-Ray managing you. Do not hire your BFF (best friend) from the choir to manage you or the deacon who raised you to be manager. Unless they are trained, it will be very hard for them to advance your career, no matter how “anointed” they are.
The gospel concert marketplace is really different than when promoter Al Walsh took out the Kirk Franklin-Yolanda Adams-Fred Hammond tour and shocked America with a mainstream gospel tour.
Nowadays, people don’t want to pay $30,000 or $15,000 and in some cases $5,000 to a gospel artist. And, consumers are not gonna pay to see a major artist in a commercial venue for $40 dollars when they know T.D. Jakes’ Potter’s House will have you for free two weeks later.
So, as Reason #6 eludes to, as an artist, you have to take this into consideration and work with the church or promoter in a reasonable way, in terms of your pricing, hotel, travel demands and even food requests. Otherwise, you will overprice yourself and sit home every weekend, while lesser known artists get work.
Per Top Reasons #7-9 above, listen to your advisors, live conservatively and read all your contracts. I understand your pastor is a very important individual in your life. But your pastor is not your accountant, lawyer or manager and he or she may not know the ins-and-outs of the music industry. Thus, you cannot listen to him on music biz stuff.
Like all artists, gospel artists must learn what a point is on an album, that percentage of their royalties that is paid to the producer, i.e., Top Reason #11 above. They should also understand music publishing, i.e., how a simple song on a Donnie McClurkin platinum album could garner the songwriter in upwards of $100,000 in royalties under the laws of copyright (i.e., what’s known as the Statutory Rate).
And, lastly, even if you feel “called” by God to sing and “that’s the reason why you sing”, please feel just as “called” to study the “business” of music and protect yourself.
John 11:35: Jesus Wept!!!! (and is STILL weeping while we just sing and don’t handle business)!Communication:
