Often called the voice of the little man, Dr. Samuel Philemon is a preacher, lecturer, impromptu therapist and traveling preacher. You may have seen or heard him on national radio or television, met him in a little white New Jersey church where he was giving a concert, found him lecturing in a classroom to a group of college students or leading a great audience of some 20,000 at a conference in Casper, Wyoming. Wherever you may find Dr. Philemon, you are sure to find a man who enjoys the work God called him to do... to challenge hearts and lives with the "Spoken Gospel."The fascinating life of Dr. Philemon began on November 8, 1952 in a small community in northern New Jersey where the news of the day reported that "Mr. and Mrs. Luke Philemon" had become the proud parents of a baby boy who they named Samuel Luke Philemon.Samuel's early years were filled with loving care from a Father and Mother who loved the Lord. Mary Philemon was a stay at home mother who was able to spend her time encouraging and teaching her son in the three "R's", reading, writing, and arithmetic, to which she added the fourth "R", religion. At an early age Samuel learned the stories of David and Goliath, Daniel in the Lion's Den, Noah and the Ark and best of all the story of Jesus.At fourteen he was invited to a tent meeting in Hawthorne, New Jersey, where he accepted Christ as Savior. He was thrilled upon hearing the one hundred and fifty people in the tent singing "Saved, Saved, Saved" and "One Day." That day he fell in love with Gospel music.Dr. Samuel Philemon and his faithful wife Mary now travel the back roads and winding alleys preaching the word of God. His regular radio program, “God Said What?” can be found in syndication on many radio stations around the country and online via the TalkShoe Internet Radio Network.
