Clifton Davis
You may know Clifton Davis for his famous hits like Never Can Say Goodbye and Lookin’ Through The Windows for the Jackson 5. But, well before becoming a famous songwriter, singer and actor, Davis actually pursued theological studies and earned his Master of Divinity from Andrews University.
Having been ordained in 1987, he has served as the co-founder and pastor of the Welcome Christian Center in Huntington Beach, California over the past two decades. He has also been the host of the Gospel Superfest for the better part of the last decade.
When not behind the pulpit, both parishioners and fans alike can see Davis playing as Ephraim Ware on the hit TV series, Madam Secretary.
