From the age of 8 years old, Pastor Miles knew that it was his task to preach the gospel to the world and at the age of 11 years old, after accepting God's Call, he stood before the Easter Sunrise Service congregation and preached his first sermon, "Naked, but not Ashamed!" Pastor Miles preached his initial sermon to the gospel ministry in September of 1996 and was officially licensed in 2001. Rev. Miles' ministry was birthed under the mentorship of his spiritual father and pastor, Dr. Jefferey P. Kee, Pastor of the New Faith Baptist Church of Christ in Columbus. Pastor Miles also had the privilege of serving as organist and an Associate Minister under the leadership and anointing of Rev. Delano R. Paige of the Rodman St. Baptist Church of Pittsburgh. Rev. Paige adopted Miles into the family as a son and Pastor Miles' ministry was greatly enhanced and exposed through him. Pastor Miles was ordained by the Reverend T. H. McFarland Jr. of Dayton, Ohio.

Pastor Miles is covered in prayer, guidance, and father-son relationship with each of these adopted Pastors: Delano R. Paige, Donald J. Washington, Robin Ricks, and Theodore McFarland.
Sensing the very personalized mandate of God for his ministry, the Lord directed Pastor Miles to submit to the anointing of Pastor and Bishop, Dr. Joseph Warren Walker III of the Mt.
