George Foreman suffered only his second professional defeat when he lost to Jimmy Young in a boxing match in Puerto Rico in 1977. In his locker room after the match, George had a deeply spiritual experience that changed the course of his life. Though he remained a top contender for the heavyweight title, he walked away from boxing at the age of 28 to serve the Lord.In 1980, George became an ordained minister and began preaching at The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in Houston, Texas — a ministry born from Bible studies, revival tents, and humble living rooms. What began as quiet gatherings among friends has since grown into a long-standing faith community still active today.
