Bold, radical, passionate; these are the words that are commonly associated with Pastor E. Leon Starks of the Lion of Judah Christian Center, in Cincinnati OH. 

 

Originally from Evansville, IN, Pastor Starks is no stranger to the streets.  During his high school years, like many teens searching for their identity, he succumbed to peer- pressure, and became involved with drugs.  This journey of drug addiction lasted 17 years, during which time he witnessed all the common ills associated with that lifestyle.
