Clifton Davis:

Clifton Davis, best known for his starring role as the son in the 1970's TV series, "That's My Mama", and as the preacher (Rev. Rueben Gregory, opposite Anna Maria Horsford's Thelma Frye) in the hit sitcom, "Amen"(1986 to 1991), is currently an ordained 7th Day Adventist minister. In addition to his sitcoms, Davis has also performed on Broadway in "Two Gentlemen of Verona", which earned him a Tony Award for Best Actor in 1972. Prior to his acting career, Clifton composed songs, most notably the Jackson 5 hit "Never Can Say Goodbye" and "Say Amen". As part of his ministerial duties, the attractive actor/songwriter is a National Spokesperson for Youthville, USA, a children's organization. He was also chosen to host The Gospel Superfest in New York in 2004. Davis, who started ministering in 1981, said "he became a minister because it was the best way for him to share his personal experiences of deliverance." He further stated that "it was God's power that gave him a sense of self-worth; and it was faith in Jesus Christ that gave meaning to his life." Additionally, Davis said, "God has a way of tailor making the ministry for you by using the gifts He gave you." Davis travels all over the country, ministering to various denominations.
