Pastor OJ Fallins

Pastor Oliver M. Fallins Jr. has been preaching the gospel since his teenage years and was officially ordained as a pastor at the age of 28. He credits his formative years spent under the guidance of his grandmother, the late Overseer Rosie J. Wallace Brown, founder and pastor of the First Church of Love, Faith, and Deliverance, for instilling in him a deep love for music and the Word of God. Currently, he is under the leadership of Pastor John Clark at Verity Outreach Worship Center.

Since 2019, Pastor Fallins has been leading Changing Lives for Christ Church, located at 2595 Orthodox Street in Philadelphia, PA. He boldly refers to this ministry as a “training ground for the believer,” where disciples are equipped with biblical tools and strategies necessary to fulfill the church's mission of “pushing the movement of Christ.”

Affectionately known as Pastor OJ, he is unashamed of the gospel and eager to share his testimony. As someone who has transitioned from being a talented yet self-proclaimed lukewarm musician with limited literacy skills, he frequently draws on the wisdom gained from his past experiences and his firsthand knowledge of God's delivering power in his sermons. His no-nonsense, line-by-line preaching style, combined with his millennial North Philly flair, creates a unique and engaging learning experience for his congregation.

Pastor OJ has been married to his wife, Lov’Lee Fallins, since 2009 and is a proud father to four biological children: Faith, Liv, Oliver (often known as J.J.), and Champion, as well as a spiritual son, Geo. He is currently pursuing further education at Lancaster Bible College, where he has already earned a certificate in biblical studies. In addition, he serves as the student president at LBC and is working toward obtaining his Bachelor’s Degree. His favorite scripture is John 17:17: “Sanctify them through thy truth. Thy word is truth.”
